LSE provides two ways to issue commands: keypad mode and command line mode. When you invoke LSE, you are in keypad mode. In keypad mode, text that you type is inserted into a buffer. Keypad, cursor, and control keys execute LSE functions. Thus, you can press keys to perform editing functions rather than typing commands on the command line. LSE provides two keypads: EDT keypad and EVE keypad. The default is the EDT keypad. You can use the SET MODE KEYPAD command to get the EVE keypad. The EDT key bindings are used in the examples in the manual. Some LSE commands are not bound to keys. Therefore, they must be entered in command line mode. There are two command line prompts: LSE Command> and LSE>. The LSE Command> prompt will process one command. After that command is processed, LSE returns to keypad mode. There are two ways to get the LSE command> prompt: pressing the DO key or COMMAND key (PF1-KP7). LSE will place the LSE Command> prompt near the bottom of the screen. Alternatively, the LSE> prompt allows you to issue as many commands as you want. To get the LSE> prompt, you press CTRL/Z. LSE will place the LSE> prompt near the bottom of the screen. To return to keypad mode, you can press CTRL/Z again or issue the CONTINUE command.
