What is the function of the Ins key on a mechanical keyboard?

Time：04-25-2023

The Ins (Insert) key on a mechanical keyboard is typically used for insert or overwrite typing in applications such as text editors, email programs, terminal windows, etc. When the insert mode is active, the text will be inserted between the existing text before the cursor, and the existing text will not be deleted. If the overwrite mode is active, the text will overwrite the existing text before the cursor. The Ins key is used to toggle between the insert and overwrite modes.

In some programs, the Ins key may have other uses, such as in a terminal window where it may be used to switch input modes, such as normal mode and Vim editing mode. In some computer games, the Ins key may be used to enable or disable certain features, such as debug mode or cheat mode.
