Editing Features

The current software release includes an enhanced editing mode that
provides a set of editing key functions similar to those of the Emacs
editor.

Notes:

Many of the commands described in this section refer to arrow
keys as well as alternate keystrokes. Please note that arrow keys
function only on ANSI-compatible terminals such as VT100s.

The --More- prompt is used for any output that has more lines
than can be displayed on the terminal screen, including

show

command output. You can use the keystrokes listed above when-
ever you see th --More- prompt.

You might want to disable enhanced editing if you have prebuilt
scripts, such as scripts that do not interact well when enhanced
editing is enabled. You can reenable enhanced editing mode
with the terminal editing command
