<div class="moz-cite-prefix">Hi Srinivas,<br>
in ETHO windows plugin is a bit more functionality in this area:<br>
<ul>
<li>"delete" deletes only one character (right of cursor) and
not a selection of text, but then you have the interclicks.</li>
<li>"backspace" deletes one character left of cursor<br>
</li>
<li>cursor up,down and left,right</li>
<li>cut and paste from clipboard to oberon and oberon to
clipboard (select text with right mouse-key) . <br>
control-c, control-x, control-v work as expected.<br>
</li>
<li>the mouse wheel works also</li>
</ul>
Let us ask the experts, whether this functionality can be easily
transferred to OLR.<br>
<br>
Regards,<br>
Dieter<br>

Oberon, backspace key works, but not delete key.
<br>
Right, Left arrow keys work, but not Up, Down arrow keys.
<br>
Home, End, PageUp, PageDown doesn't work.
<br>
Is this intentionally done to reduce keyboard use?
<br>

<br>
With thanks and best regards,

Yours sincerely,

This is how ETHO works; but never became popular.
<br>
<br>
Will these new users, in future, dislike the idea of using a
computer
<br>
by looking up-and-down [like a chicken] to see the display and
the
<br>
keybrd alternatively?
<br>
<br>
A stenographer or 'typist' who doesn't need to access all the
extra
<br>
keys, which computing has introduced, since the original optimum
<br>
keybrd-design, can operate like a skilled pianist and never need
<br>
to look down at the keybrd.
<br>
<br>
But with the menu/ETHO method, you can select in one-operation,
what
<br>
keying would need 50 operations for.
<br>
<br>
So how will it evolve in our fast moving future?
