Hi Lisa Where did you find the computer code? I was trying to put an e-mail address in and the BT would not take the regular dot 4 at sign. I had a hectic time finding out how to write it. in the manual, at sign was not listed. I finally found the answer in a section about editing. The reference card would make a very handy tool. Also, you new comers, like me, might like to get a computer braille reference card. I think they are free from NBP or if they cost any it is a tiny bit. You might be able to get one at NFB convention. It is another handy tool when you have to write in computer braille.

I would really like the ability to search the user's guide with the find command insert what text I'm looking for and then the manual can go directly to the information. This feature has been in the FS products for years in their help files. I would think adding this feature to the user's guide cannot be that hard. Maybe I'm the only one who sees the value in this feature. 2. I think a reference card of some sort would be very good for the BN products. Reading that command summary in the user's guide is like trying to read I don't know what but it's darn confusing. Same with the computer Braille code in the manual. When I actually need to find out how to write something using computer Braille I consult the National Braille Press reference card for computer Braille. 3. Put all the information about a particular topic together in the same place. For example in the keyboard settings part of the user's guide it talks about how to change the different grades of Braille but I had to open the command summary file on the Keysoft system disk to find out the shortcut to change the keyboard grade. I use the index in the manual more than the table of contents. Just my thoughts. Have a great week everyone.
