Hi Danielle,
Well, welcome to the bist (if you are a new member)...
I thought rather than sending it privately, I decided to send
this to the list in case if anyone is interested:
As you've pointed out, an easter egg is a hidden or undocumented
feature in programs. As of 2010, the known "easter eggs" in
KeySoft include a tribute message for one of the former employee
at HumanWare, tetris game and
enabling WPA Personal on certain KeySoft versions.
To access these features, from Main Menu, go to Utilities/Key
Management/Enter a new Product Key. At the "Product Key" prompt,
type the string for the easter egg that you want to use. Have
are the strings:
* dj: Stands for Dean Jackson, a former technical support
specialist at HumanWare who died in 2006. When this feature is
activated, it displays a 1rief farewell message from Rob from
HumanWare, as well as playing a song sung by Dean (called
8sinks.mp3, which is located somewhere on the BrailleNote (I will
not tell you where though)).
* Playtime: A tetris game.
* wpapsk: Stands for "Wi-Fi Protected Access - Pre-Shared Key",
another term for WPA Personal. Used on KeySoft 7.5 and lower to
test WPA capabilities.
These are the known easter eggs (on the mPower; there's no known
one for Apex yet, unless if I'm forgetting something...). For
semurity reasons, I will not publish this as a PBWorks article
(unless if the demand is high enough; if that is the case, then I
expect to publish this around mid-May).
Hope this helps...
Cheers,
Joseph
