To my surprise, I stumbled across some keyboard commands for WordPerfect
recently but have been unable to determine what they do. If you look at
Cntl-F3 and select Amiga Mapping you will notice that many of the Rt-Amiga
keys are reserved for the Amiga, not macros. Even more surprising is the
lack of documentation for these commands. I have ascertained the following:
Rt-Amiga: C= Key:
B = Bold block Automatic blocking features
C = Copy block
I = Italics block I = Block one word to the right
J = ??? O = Block one sentence to the right
K = ??? P = Block right to the next [HRt]
L = ???
O = ??? J = Block left one word
P = Paste text K = Block left one sentence
Q = Cancel L = Block left to the next [HRt]
S = Save
U = Underline block
X = Cut block
Does ANYBODY know what Rt-Amiga J,K,L,O do in WP? These could be
helpful to a WP power user like myself. Also, does anyone know why
the "Block On" notice in my status line fails to work?
Any help would be appreciated.
Once in a while, WP seems to not like what I enter into the program.
I sometimes get this message in the status line, "Typeover".
hmmmm.

The Oct89 update had them listed in the hardcopy (tho I don't specifically recall A-J -- A-O), and the earlier version had them listed in the README file.. >Does ANYBODY know what Rt-Amiga J,K,L,O do in WP?
