Cursor Movement Keys
The cursor appears as a solid rectangle (or as an underscore) on the display
screen. It shows where the next character entered from the keyboard will
appear on the screen. The cursor can be moved to a different position by
pressing a cursor movement key. Cursor movement keys allow you to move
the cursor without changing or destroying the existing data. The following
illustration shows the location of the cursor movement keys .
