Handling Command Lines
The CLI provides a wraparound feature for commands that extend beyond a single
line on the screen. When the cursor reaches the right margin, the command line shifts
to the left. You cannot see the first ten characters of the line, but you can scroll back
and check the syntax at the beginning of the command. If you enter a command and
the system displays a message on your screen, you can easily recall your current
command line entry. To scroll back to the beginning of the command line or to recall
the current command line entry, use the keys in Table 2-5.
Esc B Moves the cursor back one word.
Esc F Moves the cursor forward one word.
