The editing area is the most complicated input tool, it is a WYSIWYG editor (What You See Is What You Get) . If you are used to MS Word or Open Office, then you will be familiar with much of the functionality
Hover over the various options with the mouse to see what they do. Documentation is available online http://docs.cksource.com/FCKeditor_2.x/Users_Guide/Quick_Reference and http://docs.cksource.com/FCKeditor_2.x/Users_Guide
NOTE: If you do not want to use a WYSIWYG editor, you can edit in either plain text or html by clicking “switch to plain text editor” link below the editor box.
The source option lets you see the raw html produced by the editor. It is really for advanced users who want to write their own html. It will show you the html produced by the editor, but if you start with it from scratch it can be used to write plain text.
Most of the icons are self explanatory and you can see what they are for when you hover your mouse over them. Some however are slightly less clear and additional notes will be given below.
