Similar to the backspace key in nature, the DELete key erases while moving the
cursor to the right. This feature makes corrections in the word processor mode
very simple .
The ESCape key is used for sending special commands to the system in both the
word processor and CP/M modes.
The LINE FEED key is used to advance the paper without typing a carrier return. It
also performs specific functions in some programming languages .
These keys are primarily used with the numeric key pad while entering statistical
data. Many accounting packages allow you to use these keys as debit and credit
keys .
Cursor control keys allow the cursor to be positioned at any point on the display
screen, so you can go directly to the point at which a revision is to be made .
