Okay, now I know that it's much more than just a problem. The Humanware NLS eReader actually has raised edges on its keys that tell the user which direction each key will go. This, to me, means that the key bindings absolutely need to be fixed. I'll do this before 6.4 is released. I'm just waiting on a dude from Humanware to tell me which models have these raised edges and, in the end, how they'd prefer us to address this issue. -- I believe the Bible to be the very Word of God: http://Mielke.cc/bible/ Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | WebHome: http://Mielke.cc/ EMail: [email protected] | Ottawa, Ontario | Twitter: @Dave_Mielke Phone: +1 613 726 0014 | Canada K2A 1H7 | _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
