Hi Jonathan,

Yes, I was aware of the fact you can press the first letter and find something in a list. However, it still would be helpful to be able to advance in the event you don't remember the first letter or if for example you don't recall some one's name. I used it when I was looking for persons' in the address list. Again, I maintain maybe a toggle. Something that can be turned on and/or off at the user's discretion. Thanks for writing back.

Hi Raymond, did you know that you can just press the first letter of a
file to get to that file when you're in a list? Does this perhaps lessen
the need for what you were asking for?

[Braillenote] Rapid Braille Display Movement






Dear Listers:

I sent an email directly to Jonathan and I have not heard from him as
of yet.  He I know is a very busy man but I wanted to ask you a
question.  All of you who have a BrailleNote Classic QT;  Did you
know, that if you hold the spacebar down when in a directory or if
you hold down an arrow key while in an address list, the display
would move rapidly forward or backwards?  If not and you have KeySoft
5.1 or 6.2, try it.  Now, all who have the MPOWER QT only: does this
work in KeySoft 6.2?  I am here to tell you, in KeySoft 7, it does
not work any longer.  I personally liked the feature.  When I
contacted technical support, they told me, "it is a fixed bug!"  This
is one bug, I am not happy about having fixed.  I loved being able to
rapidly scroll through directories and address/database lists.  Does
any one else feel this way?  It makes not difference if you use the
rapid movement or exercise your display so, to me, why not have the
feature available.  I for example use the rapid movement when looking
for a particular book in the bible.  I open the directory, and then
holding down the spacebar, the display rapidly moves down the
directory.  Now, I have to press the spacebar over and over again,
this I believe is harder on the machine, because you have to
repeatedly press a key.

Sorry for rambling, I just wanted to see what any one else thought
and also get some feedback.  I would be thrilled, if they would even
have a way to turn the feature on and off.  Some persons may not wan
the display to rapidly advance others might.  Thanks for letting me
prattle.
