The GOLD_B key will toggle the definition of the CUT (Remove),

and box mode.
In box mode, the select key will create a marker for one corner
of an imaginary box on the screen. The opposite corner is def-
ined by the position of the cursor. The box defined by the mar-
ker and the cursor is used by the CUT key.
In box mode, all of the text which is inside the box will be CUT
out, and replaced by spaces. For a PASTE, the box in the paste
buffer will overlay any text when in it pasted in. The cursor
is used to mark the upper left corner of a PASTE box.
