The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software,

you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully
out of date.

* These functions are affected by the Shift key. If you press the Shift key
using these functions, text is selected as the cursor moves to its new
position. For example, if you press Ctrl+Shift+End or Ctrl+Shift+D
(Endline), all the text from the current cursor position to the end of the
current line is selected. If you then press Shift+Del, the selected text
is copied to the Clipboard.
