▌ Keyboard ▐
▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
NOTATION: CTRL, SHIFT and ALT indicate that
you should hold down CTRL, SHIFT or ALT key
while simultaneously pressing the indicated
key. For example CTRL ─ says──while holding
down the CTRL key, press the right arrow
key.
There are six types of keyboard commands:
■ Standard keyboard──Home, End, etc.
■ System──eXit, Quit, etc.
■ Directory──Edit and directOry.
■ File──Save, Bury, Print, etc.
■ Text──Find, Copy, Move, repLace, etc.
■ Mouse Emulation──Arrow movement and
mouse button presses.
Reference the menu.hlp file for information
on the System, File, Text and Directory
function keys.
Reference the arrow.hlp and mouse.hlp files
for information on Mouse Emulation from the
keyboard.
The standard keyboard commands represent, as
the name implies, all of the standard IBM-PC
edit keys and in some cases, these keys in
combination with the CTRL or SHIFT keys.
Here is a summary of these keys and their
function:
■ ──move the cursor up one line.
■ ──move the cursor down one line.
■ ─ ──move the cursor right one char.
■ ─ ──move the cursor left one char.
■ CTRL ─ ──word right.
■ CTRL ─ ──word left.
■ Ins──toggles the active window between
Insert and Overwrite modes.
■ Del──deletes the character under the
cursor. Text following the cursor is
shifted left.
■ ┘──Enter key──Insert Mode dependent.
■ Insert Mode──begins a new line at
the previous indentation level.
■ Overwrite Mode──moves the cursor to
the next line at the previous
indentation level.
■ Backspace──Insert Mode dependent.
■ Insert Mode──deletes the character
to the left of the cursor. If the
cursor is at the beginning of a line,
the preceding Carriage Return is
deleted.
■ Overwrite Mode──behaves like a ─.
■ CTRL Backspace──delete word right.
■ Tab──Insert Mode dependent.
■ Insert Mode──Inserts spaces until the
next tab stop is reached.
■ Overwrite Mode──Positions the Cursor
to the next tab stop, moving past any
existing text.
■ SHIFT Tab──Back Tab──Behaves like the
Tab key, except that cursor movement
is to the left.
■ Page Up──Scrolls upward into the file
by the number of lines displayed in
the window.
■ Page Down──Scrolls downward into the
file by the number of lines displayed
in the window.
■ Home──Positions the Cursor to the
first character position of the
current line.
■ End──Positions the Cursor one space
past the last character in the current
line.
■ CTRL End──Deletes text from the Cursor
position to the end of the line.
■ F9──Shifts the Selection left one
character position.
■ F10──Shifts the Selection right one
character position.
The last two entries are referred to as a
"block shift." Block shift is used to adjust
indentation levels of large blocks of text.
These commands require a restricted
Selection:
■ The beginning and ending of the
Selection must be at the left margin,
that is, no partial lines are selected.
■ The window is scrolled to the left
margin.
ENTERING CONTROL CHARACTERS INTO YOUR FILES
▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀▀
For some applications, it is convenient to be
able to enter control characters directly
into a file. If WindE does not interpret the
control character, they will be entered into
the file.
If WindE does interpret the character (ESC,
TAB, ENTER, etc), they may be entered into
the file by preceding them with an ESC
character. To enter an ESC character into a
file, enter ESC twice.
CAUTION: Do not enter a CTRL Z (decimal 26)
into a file──DOS interprets this as an end of
file marker and will truncate your file at
this point.
