  1. You can point, click, and type.
  2. You can also select with button 1.
  3. You can copy the selection to the mouse position with button 2.
  4. Backspace and Control+h delete the selection if there is one;

  5. Delete deletes the selection if there is one; otherwise it deletes
     the character just after the insertion cursor."
