how to get out of text-editing mode

[Eliot Rosenbloom]

For what it's worth, when I began learning oo a year or so ago, a 
more systematic explanation of precisely these issues was the Number 
1 improvement I would have requested in the oo "manual."  It took a 
fair amount of trial, error, and time, to figure these things out on 
my own.

(And while I'm writing:  Is there any way to paste into oo text which 
contains tabs in it, and have the tabs produce NOT new columns, but 
an option-tab character that moves text to the next tab stop?)

Thanks,
Eliot
