   Special Functions           PC Keyboard       Control Keys
   ---------------------       -----------       ------------
   Exit Full Screen Editor     ESC               Ctrl-U
   Quote or List Original      Ctrl-Q            Ctrl-Q
   ReDisplay Screen            Ctrl-O            Ctrl-O

Using the above keystrokes
--------------------------
All systems should be able to use the Control Key method of performing the
above functions (press and hold the CTRL key while typing the letter key that
follows it in the above table).

The more familiar PC Keyboard keys, such as the arrow keys, will work while on
locally.  They will also work if your communications program is capable of
either sending the actual keystroke (keyboard scan code) or an ANSI escape code
equivalent through to the host system.

An example would be calling in from remote using Telix or Qmodem to connect
to FeatherNet and utilitizing the 'Doorway Mode' so that keystrokes are
passed directly on to FeatherNet.

Insert Mode
-----------
While in 'Insert Mode' it should be noted that characters to the right of the
cursor will be pushed one character to the right as each letter is typed.
Pressing the (Enter) key while in Insert Mode will cause a new
line to be inserted.


NON-PC KEYBOARD USERS PLEASE NOTE!
----------------------------------
Some modems and packet switch environments will filter out CTRL-S keystrokes
and interpret them to mean "stop sending data".  In these environments
pressing CTRL-S will not move the cursor as expected - in fact it will
appear to do nothing.  You will need to press CTRL-Q to get going again.

You can work around this by using CTRL-A which means move left to previous
WORD rather than moving a character to the left.

Those of you who can send either an ESC[D or the PC scan code for the Left
Arrow will not encounter this problem and will never have to worry about it.
