Use #EditInsert to set or reset emulator Insert mode.

 

#EditInsert may also be entered as #EditIns[ert] or #Ins[ert].

 

Optional Operands

 

OPER specifies whether to set, reset, or toggle emulator insert mode.

 

If OPER is specified as "On" or "Y[es]", emulator insert mode is set on.

If OPER is specified as "Of[f]" or "N[o]", emulator insert mode is set off.

If OPER is specified as "T[oggle]", emulator insert mode is toggled.  In other words, if emulator insert mode is currently on, it is set off, and if emulator insert mode is currently off, it is set on.

 

 Default: toggle.

 

#EditInsert may be invoked without operands by pressing the Insert key.

 

When emulator insert mode is on, when a character is typed, characters from the cursor position to the end of the field are shifted right, thus allowing the new character to be inserted.  When emulator insert mode is off, the typed character is overlaid over the existing character at the cursor location.
