This input mode works similarly to a common non-terminal command, that is, a sub-menu. The difference is that what would otherwise be commands are actually parameters which are toggled when the respective keys are pressed. Boolean inputs have two forms: exclusive and non-exclusive. In the former only one parameter may be enabled at a time, so enabling a parameter automatically disables all others (a.k.a. radio buttons). The latter has no such restriction (a.k.a. checklist).
