Cursor control and editing keys

The keys listed in this section are specifically used to
move the cursor on the display. When used in combina-
tion with other keys, these cursor control keys provide
some very powerful editing functions.
The cursor's location indicates where you can type text
on the screen. Having the ability to quickly move the
cursor around the screen while editing text will signifi-
cantly improve your efficiency.
The importance of these cursor control keys is more
apparent when using application software such as word
processors, spread sheet applications, and databases. In
addition, while using your operating system software
(OS), several of these keys play an important role in
moving the cursor or editing.
Refer to the user's guide of the software you are using
for more details on how to use these keys.
