The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

     Enterinsmode (Boolean)
 
     The Enterinsmode switch determines if PWB is to start in insert
     mode or overtype mode.
 
     You can toggle the current mode by using the Insertmode function
     («insertmode»).
     See: Insertmode
 
     When the current mode is overtype mode, the letter 'O' appears on
     the status bar. Depending on the setting of the Cursormode switch,
     the shape of the cursor reflects the current mode.
     See: Cursormode, ◄Status Bar►
