You can give all of the commands on the SELECTION Command
Menu by pressing their command keys at the Top Level of the
paragraph editor Thus, if no text is currently selected, you
can press CTRL—S from Top Level to START a selection. Once
you have started a selection, you can press CTRL—S again to
FINISH it, CTRL—N to UNDO it, CTRL—D to DELETE it, or CTRL—C
to COPY it.
Once you’ve started a selection, any flashing cursor move-
ment redefines it. You can move by character, by line, by
word, by page, or to the top or bottom. Pressing ESC, or
giving any command that changes the text, cancels the selec-
tion. In other words, once you’ve started a selection, Think—
Tank wants you to do something with it before you do anything
else. You should avoid inserting text or using INSERT,
BAGKSPACE, TYPEOVER, or XCHA1NGE while in SELECT mode.
Although the SELECTION Command Menu has no MOVE option,
you can move blocks of text around a paragraph with three sim-
ple steps:
1. SELECT the text you want to move.
2. Move the flashing cursor to the position to which you
want to move the selection and COPY it there.
3. DELETE the original selection.
