Now that you have selected the Set Color function , the terminal responds only to
these keyboard keys:

banner
• The Joydisk, which you 'll use to move the crosshair cursor to select colors
• The Cancel and Menu keys, which you use to exit Set Color
• The SCopy and DCopy keys, which you can use to copy the current colors
assigned to indices

Press the upper-right part of the Joydisk.
The " Press SEras . .. " message disappears and the entire Set Color banner is now
visible .
The Crosshair Cursor
At this time , you 'll also see a set of perpendicular lines appear on the screen.
These form the crosshair cursor, which you 'll use while working with the Set Color
function.
You can use the Joydisk to move the crosshair cursor around on the screen and
select items to be changed. Position the intersection over the item you want to
select.
Go ahead and try moving the crosshair cursor around now:
Press and hold down different sides of the the Joydisk to see how it
controls the motion of the crosshair cursor.
Then , try holding down the Shift key while you press the Joydisk.
Notice that using the Shift key along with the Joyd isk slows down the motion of the
crosshair cursor for more precise control.
