 various operations (such as CUT, APPEND, or FILL) can be performed.  To create a
 select range:

     1.  Move the cursor to either the beginning or end of the text you wish to
         select.
     2.  Press the SELECT key.
     3.  Move the cursor to the opposite end of the text.

 You can then perform the desired operation on the range.

 RESET  (GOLD .)

 Cancels the effect of the GOLD key if it was pressed by mistake, cancels a
 select range, or cancels any partly entered command string.  Also sets the
 current direction to forward.
