language.

SCREEN 2
The
arrows
show you the control function of
each of these keys
:
the ARROW keys are used
with the CONTROL key to move the cursor to
any point on the
screen.
You know one way to move the cursor forward
(using the
SPACEBAR).
But to move it
up,
down,
or backward you need different
keys.
Each
ARROW key moves the cursor in the direction in
which the arrow points. Using the ARROW keys
does
not erase anything, nor does it add any
characters to the screen display.
