|
<p>In order to enter characters into the line, simply type them. The typed
|
|
character appears where the cursor was, and then the cursor moves one
|
|
space to the right. If you mistype a character, you can use your
|
|
erase character to back up and delete the mistyped character.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>Sometimes you may mistype a character, and
|
|
not notice the error until you have typed several other characters. In
|
|
that case, you can type <kbd>C-b</kbd> to move the cursor to the left, and then
|
|
correct your mistake. Afterwards, you can move the cursor to the right
|
|
with <kbd>C-f</kbd>.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>When you add text in the middle of a line, you will notice that characters
|
|
to the right of the cursor are ‘pushed over’ to make room for the text
|
|
that you have inserted. Likewise, when you delete text behind the cursor,
|
|
characters to the right of the cursor are ‘pulled back’ to fill in the
|
|
blank space created by the removal of the text. A list of the bare
|
|
essentials for editing the text of an input line follows.

|
<p>(Depending on your configuration, the <tt class="key">Backspace</tt> key be set to
|
|
delete the character to the left of the cursor and the <tt class="key">DEL</tt> key set
|
|
to delete the character underneath the cursor, like <kbd>C-d</kbd>, rather
|
|
than the character to the left of the cursor.)
