Basic Movements
Textadept supports the key bindings you are accustomed to for navigating text
fields on your platform. The arrow keys move the caret in a particular
direction, Ctrl+Left
and Ctrl+Right
(^⇠
and ^⇢
on Mac OSX | ^Left
and
^Right
in curses) move by words, PgUp
and PgDn
(⇞
and ⇟
| PgUp
and
PgDn
) move by pages, etc. Mac OSX and curses also support some Bash-style
bindings like ^B
, ^F
, ^P
, ^N
, ^A
, and ^E
. A complete list of
movement bindings is found in the “Movement” section of the
key bindings list.

caret : ‘(’, ‘)’, ‘[’, ‘]’, ‘{’, and ‘}’. Pressing Ctrl+M
