Subject: re: [Braillenote] Tab character on BN
I just had another thought on this issue. Initially, I was thinking in
terms of a Unicode character, and while browsing through the characters, the
closest character I could come up with was the "three-per-em space" (ASCII
8196, in the General Punctuation table, and hexadecimal code 0x2004)
character. However, it occurred to me that, when pressing [SPACE with T],
[TAB] in a document, a format indicator, which looks like the Computer
Braille dollar sign, dots 1-2-4-6, followed by the letter t appears for a
standard tab, dots 1-2-4-6 followed by ti appears for an indenting tab, and
dots 1-2-4-6 followed by t; appears for a semicolon tab, with the number of
the tab, which depends on what column it is placed, following each tab
except the first. Anyway, if we're both talking about the same character
here, you would either see a standard or indenting tab in your document.
To get rid of a standard or indenting tab, meaning replace it with nothing,
move to the top of your document with [SPACE with dots 1-2-3], [READ with
T]. Enter Find and Replace with [BACKSPACE with F], [CONTROL with F]. At
the "Find?" prompt, press [SPACE with T], [TAB]. You should see the $t
indicator, and even though this is the format indicator for only a standard
tab, both a standard and indenting tab will be considered as matches for a
"tab" character, meaning they would both be searched for and replaced with
what you chose. Tap ENTER. At the "Replace with?" prompt, press [SPACE
with dots 3-5-6], [CONTROL with BACKSPACE] to clear the current field; this
feature has been available since v5, I believe, but I also think you said
you have said version on your unit, so you'll be able to avail of it. If
not, move to the end of the field with [SPACE with dots 4-6], [READ with
SEMICOLON], and use a command, such as the Delete Previous Word command,
[BACKSPACE with dot 2], [CONTROL with J], to clear the field. Tap ENTER
when the field is cleared, and at the "Replace all or first?" prompt, type A
for "All".
Let me know if this is what you were looking for and if the procedure above
accomplishes what you hoped to accomplish.
HTH,
Maria
