In fact, when people ask me to explain the things i love about the braille note products, one of the first things i mention is the help system. it is the best help system I have ever seen. i use a PC extensively and use it with simple and complex programs. i've never found help on the PC as simple and yet thorough as on the BN. And the fact that I can get help from anywhere, sometimes even in one menu or another, still is amazing to me. Those help files have gotten me out of tangles and confusion many times.
by the way, on the BN BT, the command is an h chord, space with H.

Kurzweil Education Systems, the developer of the K1000 software, does provide a braille version of their manual for the K1000 at a price. I'm sure this subject has been mentioned before, so forgive me if this is redundant. One outstanding feature of the BN is the online context help at prompts -- just press the HELP key (the second key from the left on t he bottom row of the keybord on the QT model and I apologize for not knowing its equivalent on the BT model). This help is almost always sifficient to help me when I get stuck -- there are a few exceptions where it needs to be improved. I realize this may not be of help to people who need a braille manual to go through the steps, but it's been most helpful to me and you don't have to switch back and forth the way you need to withthe online manual.
