Hi.

When I take a look at a package line in the SecurityUpdates of the
TextUserInterface of Autitude I see `PackageName i A`

if press `u` => iuA => Update
if pres `-` => idA => Delete
if press `_` => ipA => Purge
if press `=` => ihA => Hold

But how to go back to `i A`?

I am using Ctrl+u to just undo. But deeply unsatisfied by this approach.
Skim over the documentation for a while but cannot find key to go back to
empty state.

Thank you.

I believe you are looking for `:`, aka “keep”. This is less
strong/persistent than `=` (Hold).

Yes. Thank you!

if press `:` => i A => Keep (What I was seeking for)
if press `+` => iuA => Update
if pres `-` => idA => Delete
if press `_` => ipA => Purge
if press `=` => ihA => Hold
