Dear Lorie,
Besides the keys mentioned by A, standard text input fields in Macintosh
systems also have the following keys which move keyboard input:
control-F move forward a character
control-B move back a character
control-option-F move forward a word
control-option-B move backward a word.
control-n next line
control-p previous line
control-E end of line
control-a beginning of line
These keys bindings are based on the Emacs editor but can be overridden in your
local library if you are really determined.
Jonathan
Best wishes,
Jonathan Cohn
