Enter and edit text with text editor

You can enter and edit text by using a text editor. Whenever the program prompts you to enter text on the command line, you can use the text editor.

Open the text editor by pressing Ctrl + M.

You can use the following editing keys:

Key

Function

Left or right arrow

Move the cursor one character left or right.

Ctrl + left or right arrow

Move the cursor one word left or right.

Move the cursor to the beginning of the text.

End

Move the cursor to the end of the text.

Delete

Delete a character right of the cursor.

Backspace

Enter

You can edit text on the command line as well, but you can only use the Enter and Backspace keys. So, if you want to add text into the middle of a word, use the text editor.
