In my humble opinion (and that of several of my colleagues (both sighted and blind), the Command Summary is structured correctly. It follows in a logical manner with each of the actions required e.g. obtain help for current operation, preceding the commands required, e.g. SPACE with H, in the case of the BT. As far as I can assess, the actions and their corresponding commands for Options Available at Any Point are all located in 19.1.3. In terms of the overall structure of the Command Summary, it has been purposely set out so that it starts with sections covering the general or basic commands before moving on to more specific or complex commands. In regard to your issue with quotation marks, I understand that they are smart quotes and that I need to somehow turn them off in Word before creating the electronic manuals.

To my great disappointment and horror, chapter 19 in both manuals has text out of order. Anyone reading the chapter for the first time would be confused. Has anyone noticed this? Does HumanWare have a corrected manual somewhere on its site? Also, the quotation marks were wrong, just like they were in the 6.2 manual. Chapter 19 in both manuals has text out of order! An example: the list of items you can access anywhere from Keysoft is in one place and the commands corresponding to the list is in another place. ___ To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit http://list.humanware.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote ___ To leave the BrailleNote list, send a blank message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] To view the list archives or change your preferences, visit http://list.humanware.com/mailman/listinfo/braillenote
