<h1 tag="text-area text-field editing">Editing Text Fields</h1>
<toc start="2"/>

<p>
    &dactyl.appName; provides several ways to edit text areas or input fields.
    After switching focus to a text field, Insert mode or Text Edit mode is
    activated, depending on your <o>insertmode</o> settings. You can also
    use an <link topic="'editor'">external editor</link>.
</p>

<h2 tag="insert-mode insert">Insert mode</h2>

<p>
    In Insert mode, all keys except for those described in the
    <link topic="i-map-index">index</link> are passed directly to &dactyl.host;.
</p>


<h2 tag="text-edit-mode text-edit">Text Edit mode</h2>

<p>
    Text Edit mode provides basic Vim-like text editing. It can be entered
    from Insert mode by pressing <k name="C-t" mode="I"/> or started directly
    when a text area is focused if <o>insertmode</o> is unset. See the
    <link topic="t-map-index">index</link> for a list of currently supported
    mappings.
