Say you hit a page that's 90% or 99% or even 100% full of
text-entry places, eg

    [20] __________________ your preference

Whole page full of that stuff.


Problem: any command you type in is taken-in not as
a command to (immediately) execute, but instead as
plain old TEXT to be entered into that field.


How the heck to do one of, eg:

1:  G 60  (ie go to label 60)

2:  backspace  (ie backup to prior page)

3:  control-P (etc) gets entered as text?  

or so forth.


Now, maybe the control-<something> is *supposed* to be
executed rather than entered as text?

But *for me* it doesn't do that.

What might be set wrong in my options or .cfg or other?


Thanks!

David
