Short tip for users of the QUILL word processor on the Sinclair QL: how to jump to the previous or next paragraph boundary (defined as the position of the Enter key) by entering the command menu (F3), selecting the copy command (M), and pressing the up or down arrow key. Works both for cursor navigation and for copying across paragraph breaks.
