The capslock key combined with u for previous line capslock i for current
line and capslock o for next line ought to help on that laptop layout.

Subject: Re: Using Nano?
Hello,
Wow, the edit cursor does not move along with the review cursor...
That's horrible.
How does one navigate? Is nano not the editor you use?
I'm used to having one hand on the arrow keys and the other on the ctrl
and meta keys. But it seems as if I can't navigate by word at all.
Ctrl+up and down take me to the top and bottom of the document,
ctrl+mod+left and right (ctrl+home and ctrl+end) take me to the start
and end of the line, but ctrl+left and right don't do anything. A guide
I read said that ctrl+space and meta+space would move me by word, but
that didn't work for me.
What text editor do you guys normally use for config files, writing
python scripts and whatnot?
If I don't wish to type the file, is there a way to open the file
without typing the name? Is there a way to copy and paste lines in the
terminal?
Thanks,

Not as far as I know.
Is there also a way to open up a text editor while one is on the
commandline?
Yes, by typing the editor's name and pressing enter. To bring up nano,
type nano and press enter.
How does one normally edit scripts?
Probably the easiest way is to type the script name after the editor
name, and pressing enter. To edit a script called myscript in nano, on
the command-line you'd type:
nano myscript
and press enter.
thank you,
You're welcome.
