INSERTING A LINE INTO YOUR TEXT
There are five different ways to insert a new line into your text
area.:
(1) F2
(2) AltI
(3) CtrlI
(4) Ctrl~
(5) Enter Key (depending on toggle setting)
F2 - add line below
Function key F2 will insert a new line directly below the cursor and
move the cursor to the left margin of the new line.
Move the cursor to the asterisk (*) and press F2. Notice the cursor
position. Now press F5 to delete the line you just added.
Press the PgDn Key
Alt I - add line below
Now move the cursor to the asterisk (*), hold down the Alt key and
press "I". Notice that a new line was added below the cursor and the
cursor moves to the new line as with F2, but in this case, the cursor
stayed in the same column instead of going to the left margin. Now
press F5 to delete the line you just added.
Ctrl I - add line above
Move the cursor to the asterisk on the line below, hold down the Ctrl
key and press "I". (*) Notice that the cursor stayed in the same
column and moved to the newly added line as with AltI, but in this
case, the new line was added above the cursor instead of below it.
Now press F5 to delete the line you just added.
Press the PgDn Key
Ctrl ~ - add line above
Move the cursor to the asterisk at the left margin on the line below
*, hold down the Ctrl key and press the ~ key. Notice that the new
line was added above the cursor. THIS IS NOT actually an INSERT line
function but a split line function, and it will only behave in this
manner when there is no text to the left of the cursor. Press F5 to
remove the new line just inserted.
Inserting a new line with the ENTER key
If your AltX toggle is set so that 'X' or 'x' appears on the command
line, then a new line will be inserted below the cursor when the Enter
key is pressed. The cursor will move to the left margin if 'X' is on
the Command Line, and to the column under the leftmost character on
the preceding line if the 'x' is on the Command Line.
