Hi.

One of the electronics newbies I teach geda, hit a strange input mode in 
gschem today. The GUI did not respond to the usual key-accels ("ee", "m", 
"i"...). Instead, on the bottom right of the window the status line 
displayed the letters just typed in upper case. [return] , [escape] or 
any combinations we came up with did not end the mode. In the end, we 
restarted the session to bring back the expected behavior.

What is this mode supposed to do?
How would it be entered?
How can it be ended?
