Jean;
I was reading my first NLS book this weekend.  At the start of the book
there is a huge list of titles and authors.  they are the items in the book.
The book was on paragraph mode and I was trying to get to the begining of
the book.  When I would press space 56 it sounded like it was only going a
single line.  I could back track a line and then forward a paragraph and get
the same.  Got any idea why it was doind this.  The only thing I can come up
with is that it might have been a list and maybe paragraph will not work on
a list.  
I also could not get space 1,2,6 for finding page, line or column to work.
I even tried the find command for chapter 1, p 1, pg 1 and page 1.  I also
tried 35 and ran into page numbers in the contence.  I finally quickly went
line by line through the contence and I finally found the introduction.  
When I finally made it to chapter 1, there was only a 1 and the name.  I
have seen numbers throughout my reading.  I guess they are the page numbers,
but there is no symbol to show this.
I came upon the word his with the h capitalized.  Why would the BT just say
dot six?
If anyone can give me any advice on any of these problems,  it would be
greatly appreciated.

Okay.  As far as I can figure this out so far, here's what I think is 
happening with moving by paragraph with space dots 2-3 or 5-6. .  It 
works fine in any text file.  It works fine in any text file converted 
to braille.  It works fine in the Demonstration file included in the 
General folder by Humanware.  I gather this is a braille document 
created just to play with.  Notably, it has one carriage return to 
separate paragraphs.

But I can't move by paragraph in any braille file I create.  I've 
experimented with as many combinations of reading mode and thumb key 
combos, but no go.  It wants two carriage returns in a braille file in 
order to recognize it as a paragraph.  All of the layout options are 
unchanged.

Anyone have any ideas?  Could this be a bug or something in 6.2?  I 
would assume one shold be able to move by paragraph in a braille doc you 
create.
