The keys "<" or ">" open the text editor. With "<" an existing character
string is deleted and the text cursor is set to the left margin of the edit line.
With ">" an existing character string remains and the text cursor is set on
the last character of the existing text.
A character chain is displayed that is composed of all the characters in
alphabetical order that can be entered. The blinking character is the cur-
rently selected one (text cursor).

Character selection

The keys "<" and ">" move the character chain composed of all possible
characters (capital and small letters, numbers and special characters, in al-
phabetical order) in the desired direction underneath the text cursor. Press-
ing these keys once has the effect that the character chain is shifted one
position left or right. The character chain can be shifted quickly by pressing
the keys longer.


ENTER

Confirmation of the character selection

The <ENTER> key causes the character that is currently positioned at
the text cursor to be appended to the existing text. When the entire width
of the edit line is filled, text edit mode is left and the text is accepted with
<ENTER>.

CLEAR

Delete character

With <Quit> text edit mode is exited. The text line displayed can be ac-
cepted with <ENTER> or rejected by pressing <QUIT> a second time.
