An interactive editing facility EDIT/TABLE exists in MIDAS to
create and modify tables. The editor works in a
``page--oriented'' form, a ``page'' consisting of 20 rows and several
columns to fill the screen format, using a Keypad mode or a command
mode to perform the editing functions. The command mode is accessible
by hitting CNTL-Z. Most of the editing functions are implemented on
the right keypad of the keyboard
(Table 
) as well as on the left
keypad if it exists (e.g on Sun workstations). Some keys of the
central keyboard are also recognized
(Table ). The functions
only available in command mode are listed in Table
