The ^H, ^L, ^J, ^K scroll commands of WordMaster come from the ADM-3A terminal, which had the equivalent arrows printed on these keys.
WordStar's early development used ^A, ^S, ^Z, ^W for Left, Right, Down, and Up, but these were later moved one key to the right to allow ^A to be reassigned to Word Left, and ^F then became Word Right.
