Inputs

  Inputs are fields where text or numbers can be entered. As long as they are not selected, they look like ordinary buttons. After they have been selected, new text can be typed in to replace an existent entry, or an already existent entry can be edited by starting with one of the following keys: "cursor left", "cursor right", "home" or "end" (see figure 4.4).
