I think you're a little confused. The term "line break" means the BN has
created a "soft return." It's symbol on the braille display is computer
dollar sign l. A "new line" means the BN sees a "hard return" just like it
does when you press the enter key.
When you open a .brf file, you can choose "paragraph mode" or "line mode."
In "paragraph mode," you will only see a new line indicator at the end of
each paragraph in the document. "Line mode" has new line indicators at the
end of each braille line.
You can set your options permanently by going to the "ASCII Translation
menu." You can import the .brf file into KeyWord braille and it will appear
according to the default settings.
But if you open the .brf file, then you will be asked "review the options."
If you answer "yes," you can manually choose paragraph mode or line mode.
If you say no, the file will automatically open in paragraph mode, even if
you have set the default in the ASCII translation options to "line mode."
This is important for people who write a line of words followed by a line of
music because you don't want to see words and music on the same line.
There are other things I could mention, but I'm afraid I've confused you
enough already.

Subject: [Braillenote] replacing "line break" with "new line"
Hi,
I pasted my phones file that I had created with my braille lite into a new
key word document. The carriage returns made by the braille lite show up
as "line break" in the keyword document. If you have a carriage return
in a key word document it shows up as "new line". I assume the keyword
document's linebreaks are equivalent to a carriage return linefeed pair
whereas the braille lite only recorded them as carriage returns. Is there
' way that I can do a find and replace, replacing all the "linebreaks"
with "new lines"? Thanks.
Pam
