In edit mode, the macro is displayed as two lines. The top line (the edit line) displays
the macro in either hex or decimal format and is the line in which the editing takes

This line keeps track of which part of the macro you are editing, and is updated by the
utility as editing takes place.
The insert, delete, and cursor control keys are active for editing. When a key is se-
lected from the Edit Macro option, the menu bar displays the following choices: Exit,
Cut, Copy, Paste, Codes, Hex/Decimal, and I/O (Insert/Overtype). The macro for the
chosen key is also displayed.
Cut deletes a sequence of scan codes from the macro. To select a section to cut:
