I hope this will clarify and not confuse even further. To get the atsign, press space with u then dot 4 and this will produce the atsign. Pressing space with u tells the braillenote that the next character you enter should be considered to be in uppercase. That's how the dot 4 becomes an atsign. Any characters you press after that will again be considered by the bn to be in lower case. If, for some reason, you want to produce other special characters which require the bn to be in upper case, press space with u two times and you should see a message saying caps lock on. Then, until you press space with u again, everything would be put into upper case including special characters. You probably would rarely if ever do this, so the space with u command is a quick way to generate a single character which can only be created in uppercase mode.
I'm pretty sure the space with u while in upper case mode returns you to lowercase mode, but I'm doing this from memory as I now have a qt keyboard and my reference isn't handy at the moment. But, everything else should definitely be accurate. Hope this helps. Don On Thu, 18 Dec 2003 14:29:29 -0500, Chris Westbrook wrote: You only need to put the space with u in front of the dot 4. You do not need to hit dot 1 after that either, as this will produce an a as expected.
