术语“插入符号”是如何产生的？ 文本插入进化？
文本插入点的术语“插入符号”源自何处？ 我尝试用谷歌搜索它，但是很难找到它（即使我的历史计算机参考书似乎在这里也没有帮助）。
我相当确定我记得一些过时的 Wang/大型机应用程序，它们使用文字插入符号（即：^）作为文本插入标记，但我一辈子都记不住。
This is an example using the caret as an insertion point^
是的，我知道我可以通过直接谷歌搜索来找到脱字符号的含义，但我正在寻找真正的词源 - 即：使用带有真实的实时脱字符号作为文本插入的文本编辑器系统的人观点。 这类东西对我来说很有趣 - 就像鼠标指针使用术语“bug”的起源一样。
Where did the term "caret" originate for a text insertion point? I've tried to google for it, but this is something difficult to locate (even my historic computer reference books don't seem to help here).
I'm reasonably sure I remember some archaic Wang/mainframe apps that used a literal caret (ie: ^) as a text insertion mark, but I couldn't remember one for the life of me.
This is an example using the caret as an insertion point^
Yeah, I know that I can find the meaning of caret by googling it directly, but I'm looking for for a real etymology here - ie: someone who has used a text editor system with a real, live caret symbol as a text insertion point. This sort of stuff is interesting to me - like the origin of the use of the term "bug" for a mouse pointer.

它来自纸笔文本编辑，其中 ^ 标记用于指示插入的文本。 该商标是根据其他人指出的拉丁语衍生词为其目的命名的。
It comes from pen-and-paper text editing, where a ^ mark is used to indicate inserted text. The mark is named for its purpose according to the Latin derivation noted by others.
来自 wikipedia “该术语来自拉丁语脱字符号，“它缺少”，来自 'carēre' ， 缺乏;” 您可以使用它来标记拼写错误以显示在哪里插入更正
From wikipedia "The term comes from the Latin caret, "it lacks", from 'carēre', to lack;" you use it in marking typos to show where to insert a correction
