1.4.1 Moving the Cursor on the Command Line
Table 1.2 shows the key combinations or sequences you can use to move the cursor around
on the command line. Ctrl defines the Control key, which must be pressed simultaneously
with its associated letter key.
Esc supports the Escape key (which must be pressed first), followed by its associated
letter key. Keys are not case sensitive. Specific letters were chosen to provide an easy way
of remembering their functions. In
