Insert mode and overwrite mode
Press the [Ins] key to toggle between insert mode and overwrite mode. To determine which is the current mode, check the upper left corner of the display. If the insert mark (
) appears, character entry is in the insert mode; otherwise, character entry is in the overwrite mode.

Starting from the state shown in Screen 1 below, if A is entered in insert mode, the display will change to ABACDE, since the character that is entered is inserted to the left of the cursor. If the same operation is performed in overwrite mode (Screen 2), the result is ABADE, since the C where the cursor is located is replaced with A.
