How to select text in Pico when I don't have a carat character?
- by Andrew Swift
I am using Pico via Terminal/SSH on an iPad with a French bluetooth keyboard. There is no way to type the carat (^) key to select text (control-carat to start selection).
The carat on the keyboard is used to type a circonflex accent (août), and only becomes active when one types a letter after pressing it. There is therefore no way to type control-^.
When I do type ctrl-^ in Pico, the cursor moves to the previous line.
Is there an alternate way to select text in Pico? I can't see how to use it without finding a solution.
