+When enabled, text is written to the cell under the cursor
+and all existing content is shifted right. When disabled, text
+overwrites existing content.
+
+This mode is unset as part of both [full reset (RIS)](/vt/ris)
+and [soft reset (DECSTR)](/vt/decstr).
+
+If a multi-cell character (such as "橋") is shifted so that the cell is split
+in half, the multi-cell character can either be clipped or erased.

+This mode is typically disabled on terminal startup.
