It supports the functions of the <emph>Edit</emph> menu (Cut, Delete, Paste), the ability to select text with the Shift key, as well as cursor positioning functions (for example, moving from word to word with <switchinline select="sys"><caseinline select="MAC">Command</caseinline><defaultinline>Ctrl</defaultinline></switchinline> and the arrow keys).</paragraph> +<paragraph role="paragraph" id="par_id3154686" xml-lang="en-US">Long lines can be split into several parts by inserting a space and an underline character _ as the last two characters of a line. This connects the line with the following line to one logical line.
