Hi, Alex,
You could try turning off word wrap so the BN won't add its own soft
returns.
Remember to use line mode when you are opening and saving .txt files. If
you don't use line mode, each single hard return will become a space.
Next, go to the ASCII translation options. Turn on the use line feeds and
use carriage returns.
Lastly, Don't change your extension until you have transferred your .txt
file to your PC and checked it out with a good text editor. PowerEdit is a
good text editor.
I hope these suggestions help.

Subject: [Braillenote] new lines in bn-created txt files
Okay, this is ridiculous. There seems to be no way to retain new lines in
txt files that are created or edited on the bn. This is extremely
frustrating, especially for programming where hard returns can make all
the difference. When I write a program on the bn, renaming the extension
to the correct language (.cpp, java, whatever) and move it to my computer,
what have been described as "square zeros" appear where I had put a new
line on the bn. What can I do, if anything, to have the hard returns
actually work correctly? Thanks.
Have a great day,
Alex
