One of the drop down menu's at the top has a list of the controls.
You'll something like XInject to add blocks and stuff like that.

Oh really?

Quote from controls:
"Translate Mode
Mouse+Left Click and Drag - xy
CTRL+Mouse+Left Click and Drag - move up/down
Right/Left Arrows - translate x-direction
Up/Down Arrows - translate y-direction
PgUp/PgDown - translate z-direction"

Seems to me that everything related to moving objects is listed there.

You have to switch between select, translate, and rotate mode. Odds are, you aren't doing that. Once you've selected something, hit Tab and it will switch to translate mode (translate means move by the way). If you hit it again it will switch to rotate mode, and if you hit it again after that, it will go back to select mode.

That is also listed in the controls section:
"TAB - Toggle Edit Mode"

Unfortunatly, they do not list what buttons you need to press to remove your head from your @$$.
