Many of the commands below may not seem to work normally.

For example, it makes no sense to undo or cut from a web page that you are viewing that you do not own. These functions will not work in that instance.

Undo will allow you undo any action text that you may have changed immediately before. It is impossible to undo mail sends, file tranfers, or anything that submits data to another computer.

The Cut command removes any selected text and places it on to a hidden place inside the computer called a clipboard. The text can retrived using the paste command on most any application.
Copy does almost the same function as cut, but this command can leaves the text in the browser. This is commonly done to save text to the clipboard so it can be transferred to a wordprocessor.

Paste places the contents of the clipboard on to the cuurent window. This can only be done if the insertion pointer,commonly "|," is visible in the window.

Select ALL selects or "darkens all of the text in the windows. The selected text can either cut or copied to the clipboard.

The Find commands are used to search the text in the current page for any combination of words typed in the find box.
