The undo command applies only to changes in the buffer; you can't use it to undo cursor motion. + On a graphics terminal, the easiest way to invoke @code{undo} is +with @kbd{C-/}; that doesn't need the shift key. On a text terminal, +@kbd{C-/} does not exist, but usually you can type @kbd{C-_} without +the shift key and it will work anyway. + Although each editing command usually makes a separate entry in the undo records, very simple commands may be grouped together.
