Reference Guide

When you select DELETE (command key CTRL—D) from the EDIT Command Menu in the paragraph editor, ThinkTank erases the character under the flashing cursor. When you select it from the SELECTION Command Menu, DELETE erases the selection (after giving you a chance to confirm). You can also give the DELETE command by pressing CTRL—Dfrom the Top Level of the paragraph editor. Its referent depends on whether there is a selection

or not.

When you select DELETE (command key D) from the MERGE Command Menu, ThinkTank deletes the paragraph from the second headline after merging it into the first.

KEYS

The direction keys move the bar cursor from one visible headline to another, according to the structure of the outline. UP and DOWN respectively move the bar cursor to the next headline above and below its current position at the same level of the outline. LEFT moves the bar cursor one level higher, to the headline that contains or subsumes the current headline; RIGHT moves it one level deeper, to the first headline subordinate to the current one. The command prefix tells ThinkTank how many headlines or levels to move in the indicated direction.

Neither UP nor DOWN will move the bar cursor past a higher—level headline to get to one at the same level. Similarly, RIGHT won’t move the bar cursor past a higher— or same—level headline to get to one at a deeper level.
