-<p>Jalview recognises the following keystrokes.</p>\r
-<p>Escape - Clears the current selection region, highlighted columns and highlghted \r
- residues</p>\r
-<p>Control 'A' - Selects all sequences in the alignment.</p>\r
-<p>Control 'C' - Copies the selected region, in Fasta format (Not applet, as no \r
- clipboard is available)</p>\r
-<p>Control 'V' - Pastes the selected file (Can be external to Jalview) to a new \r
- alignment window.</p>\r
-<p>Control 'X' - Cuts the selected region from the alignment window.</p>\r
-<p>Control 'Z' - Undoes the last sequence edit. </p>\r
-<p>Control 'F' - Launches the search window. </p>\r
-<p>Up Arrow - Moves selected sequence(s) up the alignment</p>\r
-<p>Down Arrow - Moves selected sequence(s) down the alignment.</p>\r
-<p>F1 - Show Help Documentation</p>\r
-<p>F2 - Toggle Cursor mode on / off</p>\r
-<p>With Cursor mode on....</p>\r
-<ul>\r
- <li>Cursor keys - Move cursor around the alignment.</li>\r
-</ul>\r

-<ul>\r
- <li>Delete - Delete a gap at the cursor position.<br>\r
- To delete 12 spaces at the current cursor, type 12 before pressing Delete.<br>\r
- To group delete, hold down control or shift together with Delete.</li>\r

+Jalview has two distinct modes of keyboard operation - in 'Normal'\r
+ mode, single keystrokes (including those shown next to menu items)\r
+ provide short cuts to common commands. In <a\r
+ href="features/cursorMode.html">'Cursor'</a> mode (enabled by\r
+ <em>F2</em>), some of these are disabled and more complex 'Compound\r
+ Keystrokes' can be entered to perform precise navigation, selection\r
+ and editing operations.\r
