Reference Guide
When you select DELETE (command key CTRL—D) from the EDIT
Command Menu in the paragraph editor, ThinkTank erases the
character under the flashing cursor. When you select it from
the SELECTION Command Menu, DELETE erases the selection (after
giving you a chance to confirm). You can also give the DELETE
command by pressing CTRL—D from the Top Level of the paragraph
editor. Its referent depends on whether there is a selection
or not.
When you select DELETE (command key D) from the MERGE Com-
mand Menu, ThinkTank deletes the paragraph from the second
headline after merging it into the first.
DIRECTION COMMANDS Move bar cursor
Command keys: U, D, L, and R
Command prefix: Yes
Location: Top Level
See also: ARROW KEYS
The direction keys move the bar cursor from one visible
headline to another, according to the structure of the
outline. UP and DOWN respectively move the bar cursor to the
next headline above and below its current position at the same
level of the outline. LEFT moves the bar cursor one level
higher, to the headline that contains or subsumes the current
headline; RIGHT moves it one level deeper, to the first head-
line subordinate to the current one. The command prefix tells
ThinkTank how many headlines or levels to move in the in-
dicated direction.
Neither UP nor DOWN will move the bar cursor past a
higher—level headline to get to one at the same level.
Similarly, RIGHT won’t move the bar cursor past a higher— or
same—level headline to get to one at a deeper level.
