The QT command to query cursor position is read with q. As far as deleting a book goes, I'd go to the file manager menu, erase file menu, indicate the drive where the file is located, cycle through the list to find the book to be deleted, and press enter.
I have never erased a file from the bookreader but I have erased files in KeyWord. Pretend you want to open a file but don't press enter. Instead, press control with I. I don't know the BT command.
