#### 4.11.2 InsertString

Syntax: `InsertString [`text`]`
Abbreviation: `IS`

inserts text at the current cursor position. If the optional argument text is omitted, you will be prompted for it on the command line. All the currently active preferences options (insert, word wrapping, auto indent, et cetera) are applied.

Note that `SaveMacro` converts `InsertChar` commands into a possibly smaller number of `InsertString` commands. This makes macros easier to read and edit. See SaveMacro.
