4–12
Move Cursor Forward One Space (Ctrl L)
Move the cursor forward one character position by typing control L. If the
cursor is positioned at the last character in the message, the command is
ignored. Many terminals, other than the keyboards (Catalog No. 2706-NK1,
-NK2), have a key with a forward arrow ( ) marked on them. This key may
move the cursor forward (depending upon terminal type).
Move Cursor Backward One Space (Ctrl H)
Move the cursor backward one character position by typing control H.
It moves the cursor one space back in the message. If the cursor is already at
the first character in the message, the command is ignored. Many terminals
have a key with a back arrow ( ). Others have a key labeled backspace.
Still others have both. These keys may move the cursor backward
(depending upon terminal type).
Move Cursor Up One Line (Ctrl K)
The up-one-line command (control K) moves an entire display line (20
characters) backward in a message. The command is ignored if the cursor is
already at the first line. Most terminals, other than the keyboards (Catalog
No. 2706-NK1, -NK2), have an up arrow key ( ) which generates this
command. This key may move the cursor up one line (depending upon
terminal type).
Move Cursor Down One Line (Ctrl J)
The down-one-line command (control J) moves an entire display line (20
characters) forward in a message. The command is ignored if the cursor is
already at the last line. Most terminals, other than the keyboards (Catalog
No. 2706-NK1, -NK2), have a down arrow key ( ) which generates this
command. This key may move the cursor down one line (depending upon
terminal type).
