Information about “THE EDITING KEYPADS”

THE EDITING KEYPADS provides an organized collection of macros, which
can be used individually or interactively, to augment PC-Write.
PC-Write itself is unchanged.  The basic idea here, which is quite
simple, is to designate a variety of new access keys, with each access
key reaching a keypad of new macros.  This provides a quick
two-key sequence for starting and running a host of spatially oriented
macros.  EKP uses 8 access keys to reach 30 new keypads and 1,234
macros.

A good example of the many macros found in THE EDITING KEYPADS is the
"phrase keypad."  This macro provides cursor motion, phrase by phrase.
These "phrase" macros can move the cursor left or right through the
text to the next punctuation mark or to successive punctuation marks.

There are lots of macros here.  Select a few favorites and enjoy them.
You will soon see from the documentation that the macros are organized
in groups and laid out similarly on all keypads so that one can readily
use lots of them, without having to remember too much.  And, there are
plenty of help screens.
