Entering text

Once you are in EVE, text can be entered directly from the keyboard:

• Anything you type will be entered at the cursor position on the screen.
• The RETURN key starts a new line.

  When data is being entered EVE normally automatically starts a new line when required.

• The DELETE key (above the RETURN key) erases the character to the left of the cursor.
• A line can be split by placing the cursor at the required point and then pressing the RETURN key.
• Two lines can be joined by placing the cursor at the start of the second line and then pressing the DELETE key.
• If a line, thus constructed is too long to fit on the screen this is indicated by a diamond character at the end of the line.
• See the FILL command for the removal of overflowing lines.
