Valid QuickStroke Key Assignments

You can use any keystrokes that begin with

[Alt]

provided that the combination is

not already in use. A message appears prompting you to enter a different
combination if the one you selected is already in use. The QuickStroke key
assignments are listed when you select Quick reference in Hypertext help.

In addition to the

[Alt]

keystrokes, you may be able to assign additional special

function keys, depending on you personal computer’s keyboard. For example, on
AT or PS/2 style keyboards, the

[F11]

,

[F12]

, and

[center]

keys can be assigned

as QuickStroke keys.

Using Cursor Markers

The Cursor menu provides several options for marking and retrieving the cursor
position while writing programs.

If you are editing a very large file and need to frequently access a different section,
you can set a cursor position marker at a key location and then instantly move to
that position marker at any time with a single keystroke. The markers can be
stacked up to 10 deep so that you can access up to 10 positions in the reverse order
that they were stored. You can also set several random access marks throughout a
file for random access according to a marker number.
