Subject: Q: How to make the cursor skip to the next word?

Hello:

	In most DOS/Windows wordprocessors, pressing the 
`Ctrl + Right Arrow' keys would make the cursor jump to the next word. The 
PINE v3.91 Editor we have here doesn't understand this key combination 
(I guess because it is a UNIX application).

	Is there a similar key combination in PINE that would do the same
thing? Thanks for your help.

    I am using Unix Pine 3.91.  In the composer (or in Pico, which is 
pretty much the same thing), Ctrl-@ (^@) moves the cursor from word to 
word toward the right.  On my keyboard I do not have to use Shift, so 
Ctrl-2 works just fine.

Ctrl-SPACE or Ctrl-@ will do it.
