Re: Where is "the Cursor one word left/right keybinding?"

[Charles Iliya Krempeaux <tnt linux ca>]

Hello,

I'm not sure if this is what you are talking about.  But try using:
[CTRL]+[->] and [CTRL]+[<-] -- control-right-arrow and
control-left-arrow.  They make you move one word at a time.  And
if you want to highlight too, then hold down the [SHIFT] keys, also.

See ya
