Insert Mode is OFF by default. When you toggle it ON, you'll hear a short
BEEP. When you toggle it OFF, you'll hear TWO short BEEPS. You'll also have
a VISUAL aid that indicates the status of Insert.

In RIP mode, the button label will change to "Insert ON" or "Insert Off".
In ANSI mode, the status bar at the bottom of the screen will always show
the current status of Insert.

The full screen editor supports the fundamental WordStar type commands,
Wildcat compatible commands, VT100, VT102, and DOORWAY Extended commands.

WordStar and Wildcat commands typically involve holding down the control
key and then pressing the corresponding letter for the desired effect.  For
example, to reformat the message, holding down the [CONTROL] key while
pressing the letter B.

When editing, usually there is a alternate keystroke(s) that can cause the
same function.  In the previously listed table of commands, the other
possible combinations are displayed to the right of its control key
counterpart.

ANSI color, animation, RIP, and music are not allowed in the message base.
This is due in part to the full screen editor using ANSI and RIP control
sequences for maintaining the cursor and character positioning during
advanced functions of message editing.  If they were allowed, unpredictable
results could occur due to misinterpretation of the message control codes
and the editors control code usage.

The full screen editor supports several cursor movement commands generated
by different communication programs.  Cursor positioning using ANSI
terminal emulation as well as standard Escape commands are interpreted
properly.  If you find that your communication program is not operating
properly when in the full screen editor, you may need to activate ANSI
terminal emulation mode.

Some programs support both ANSI and Escape codes and do not require ANSI to
be activated.  If you still have problems with cursor positioning, make use
of the Ctrl keys to move the cursor.

Some commands such as Del, Ins, PgDn, PgUp, ^L-Arrow, ^R-Arrow, ^End, and
^Home are EXTENDED SCAN codes and your communication program has to support
DOORWAY extended scan codes. If you are using RIPscript, Doorway extended
scan codes are automatically toggled ON and OFF for you.

In RIPscript mode, you can also select commands from two PULL down menus or
from the menu BAR at the top of the screen. You can also PGUP and PGDN
using the scroll bar buttons on the RIGHT-HAND side of the screen.

                                   Size

The owner of the BBS you are using will also have to PAY to send your
message if the area you are posting to is a Newsgroup, E-mail, or Echo area
so please, be brief and to the point.

Because the owner more than likely will have to PAY to send your message,
the Editor will restrict you to roughly 165 lines of text. That's about
11,000 bytes. You are, after all, writing a letter and not a novel so this
should be MORE than enough.

                                JOIN LINES

                                 Method #1

You can JOIN the current line with the line ABOVE it by moving to the FIRST
character on the CURRENT line and pressing the BACKSPACE key.

                                 Method #2

You can also JOIN the line BELOW your current position with the line you
are CURRENTLY on by moving to the END of the line and pressing ^G or DEL.


                              INSERTING LINES

The CTRL key for inserting a blank line is ^Ki but there is an alternate
method of inserting.

Move to the FIRST character on the line BELOW the insertion point and press
ENTER. The editor will move the CURRENT line DOWN and insert a BLANK line
in it's place.
                                SPLIT LINE

The CTRL key for SPLITTING a line is ^N however, you can use the ENTER key
to do the same thing.

                          DELETING MULTIPLE LINES

To delete a line you would normally use ^Y. If you wanted to delete several
lines in a ROW, that could be a little slow given that you are using a
modem. It's also seems to be a little awkward, at least it does to me.

Luckly there is a much easier and faster way, BLOCK DELETE.

BLOCK DELETE consists of two commands, START BLOCK and END BLOCK.

Move to the first line you want to delete and press ^KB. The BBS will
signal that it has RECEIVED your request by BEEPING at you. When you hear
the BEEP, move to the last line of text you want to delete and press ^KD.

It's pretty hard to accidently hit the START BLOCK command, give that it is
a 2 key sequence, but if you do or you change your mind about deleting the
block, press ^KA to abort the BLOCK DELETE process.
