Insert Indicator
When your keyboard is in Insert mode, the caret symbol ( ^ ) is displayed
on the status line of your display. When you enter characters under
Insert mode, they are inserted at the cursor position, and characters to
the right of the cursor are moved to the right to make room for them.
When Insert mode is not active, characters entered from the keyboard
overwrite the existing data at the cursor position. Press the INSERT key
(default keystroke Insert) to enter insert mode, and press the RESET key
(default keystroke Esc R) to leave insert mode.
