These are not ARP features, they're standard features of any string gadget. Shift-cursor-right or left moves the cursor to the beginning or end of the line. Right-Amiga-X clears the string gadget. Right-Amiga-Q restores the gadget to it's original contents after you've screwed it up. Did I miss any? These work in _any_ string gadget. Actually, I'd like to see a few more features in there myself, like deleting words, moving cursor by a word, insert/replace toggle, and the like. > >Thanks in advance. > >Maurice LeBrun, Institute for Fusion Studies, University of Texas at Austin > Internet: mjl%fusion.decnet@chpc.brc.utexas.edu Phone: 512-442-7636 H > or mjl%uta.mfenet@nmfecc.arpa 512-471-6149 W >"If cows ate plankton, whales would starve" -- ------------ Eric Kennedy ejkst@cisunx.UUCP
