The Editing Cursor

cursor_left

cursor_right

cursor_up

cursor_down

Move the editing cursor in the appropriate direction. The exact allowed movements depends on where the cursor is and whether cutoff data is displayed.

read_start

read_end

Positions the cursor at the beginning or end of the used data for this sequence.

read_start2

read_end2

Positions the cursor at the beginning or end of the displayed data for this sequence. These differ from read_start and read_end when cutoff data is displayed in that they use the ends of the cutoff data.

contig_start

contig_end

Positions the cursor on the consensus line at the start or end of the contig.

cursor_set xpos ypos

Positions the cursor at the correct position and sequence based on an (x,y) coordinate pair from the topleft corner of the screen. Units are in bases unless '@xpos @ypos' is used, in which case they are pixels.

cursor_consensus ?xpos?

Positions the cursor at an absolute position within the consensus. If no xpos is given the existing position within the contig is returned.
