Erik!  This is great!  I have looked and not been able to find these wonderful 
instructions.  I do know that my fn key is useless for page up and page down.  
I'd sure like that to work but until it does, this really helps.

Hi,  Here are the text navigation and selection commands.
Move left and right one letter, left and right arrow.
Move left and right one word, option left and right arrow.
Move to the beginning or end of the line, control left and right arrow.
move to the previous or next line, up and down arrow.
move to the next or previous paragraph option down or up arrow.
Move to the top or bottom of the document command up or down arrow.

To select text add shift to any of these commands.  IE, to select the next 
word, press option shift right arrow.  To select from the insertion point to 
the end of the line, press control shift right arrow.  To select the next 
paragraph, press option shift down arrow.  You get the idea.

To select everything in the text area, press control A.

Hope this helps,
