In a sane editor just press b.

Is Ctrl + ⬅️ for typing 'b' then?

[-] debil@lemmy.world 5 points 11 months ago

No (although you can easily create such a key mapping if so inclined). To type b character one must first enter the so called Insert mode. Depending on where exactly you wish to type the character, you can enter the Insert mode by typing for example i, a, I, A, o or O.

Sounds like you're talking about good old vi or vim.
