Entering numbers and control bits.

α	Turn on CONTROL bit in following character.
β	Turn on META bit in following character.
ε	Turn on CONTROL and META bits in following character.
0-9	Enter numeric argument (which also precede command).
Cursor Moving Commands:

     U  I  O			These commands move cursor in the
      \ | /			direction indicated.  (K is a no-
       \|/			op included for symmetry and also
     J--K--L			re-output display).
       /|\	
      / | \
     M  ,  .

     R  T  Y			These commands move cursor in the
      \ | /			direction indicated and place the
       \|/			current character at cursor posi-
     F--G--H			tion.  Current character is init-
       /|\			ially set to * and may be changed
      / | \			with D, *, and  β<character> com-
     V  B  N			ands.


∧	equivalent to 5I	These four commands move cursor a
∨	equivalent to 5,	multiple of 5 units. This is also
≤	equivalent to 5J	distance between grid lines.
≥	equivalent to 5L

<	moves to top		Move to edges of screen.(Users of
>	moves to bottom		TVED note:   Commands < ≤ and ≤ >
<cr>	moves to left		are interchanged.)
α<tab>	moves to far right

The following are included for those people who use TVED or E 
frequently:

<lf>	equivalent to ,
<vt>	equivalent to I
<space>	equivalent to L
<bs>	equivalent to J

These commands set current character.

D	Set current character to <space> and place at cursor pos-
	tion effectively deleting that character.
β<char>	Set current character to <char> and place at cursor posi-
	tion.  (Non-printing characters other that space will not
	be permitted).
*	Set current character to * and place at cursor position.
Line editing commands:

E	     Invokes system line editor.
	 _
α<space>  |
αD	  |
αI	  |  Enter system line editor and execute this command.
αK	  |
α<bs>	 _|

Z	     Moves cursor to last non-blank character in line.
S<char>	     Moves to next occurance of this character,  wrapping
	     around if necessary.

"	     Add following line of text beginning at cursor posi-
	     tion.
'	     Take next character as direction command  (it should
	     one of {U,I,O,...}) and place following line of text
	     in the specified direction.
Fonts:

For information on font file format, see MODE0[XGP,SYS].

αR	Read character from font file. If none has been mentioned
	a file name will be requested and FNT will be assumed for
	an extension.  If there is no such file on your area, the
	system font area will also be checked.  After a font file
	has been selected, a file name will not be requested.  To
	select a different font file, type <altmode> instead of a
	character and a new font file name will be requested.

α∨	Same as αR except the character is or'ed the current dis-
	play.

αW	Write character onto font file. The file name protocol is
	the same as αR.  You will be asked if you want to use the
	default width  (which includes at least one extra bit for
	spaces, and is proportional to size).  If you do not type
	yes, your position will be saved and you may use the move
	commands to set the cursor to set the width and then type
	'⊃' to indicate you're done.   It will not check if there
	is already a character for that code however it will not-
	fy you if its size is larger than any other character in
	that font file.
Macros:

⊂	Begin macro.   All commands are saved up to next matching
	'⊃'.  Currently, commands that use the system line editor
	are illegal.  Macros may be nested to a depth of 20,  but
	macros length is limited by SAIL string space.

⊃	End macro.  Next character determines what happens to the
	macro:

	<number>R	Macros is repeated <number> times.
	λ<letter>	Macros is saved and may be invoked by the
			ε<letter> command,  and may also be saved
			on a file  (see extended commands MWRITE,
			MREAD and MLIST).
	Q		Don't do anything with macro.

∀	Begin macro to be repeated on each line. Macro is termin-
	ated with '⊃' (with no following character).

∃	Get back previous macro at current level.  Useful for re-
	peating macros and defining a macros which was terminated
	terminated with ⊃R or ⊃Q. [Not implimented yet.]

@	Use contents of file as macro.  (α,β and ε may be used to
	turn on appropriate control bits.)
