→Typing Over Text
If you wish to erase something you have typed all you have to do it position the cursor over the previously typed letters and retype something else on top of the old text. Dr, you can erase text by holding down the space bar; when you do so the cursor
moves right and leaves blank space when there previously was text. It also auto repeats. You can wipe out a line in a few seconds.
====Erasing Text====
FCTN 1, CTRL j, CTRL k, FCTN 3, CTRL 1.
You can also delete one character by moving the cursor on top of it then keying FCTN 1. That one character will vanish and all text on that line to the right of the cursor moves left to close up the gap. Holding down FCTN 1 auto repeats this process of
"deleting and closing" until you stop or until all characters on the line right of the cursor are gone.
You can erase portions of a line equally as fast by using either the space bar or FCTN 1. You can also erase everything on a line to the left of the cursor with one command: CTRL j. CTRL k erases everything on the line after the cursor.
