They could, I suppose, all be defined to NOOP. On the other hand, if we do that then maybe it's even better to make simple keypad key presses do the current KP0+ functions. >My keyboard apparently can't do KP0+KPPeriod+!KP2, KP0+KPPeriod+!KP3, >KP0+KPPeriod+!KP5, KP0+KPPeriod+!KP6, >However KP0+KPPeriod+!KP1 and KP0+KPPeriod+!KP4 do work. >I'll have to experiment to see if it's just *this* keyboard... Mine is the same. >For some reason, I'd expect an entirely blank line to be announced as >"blank" rather than "space". Except that "blank" is the formal name of a specific character. Maybe "empty", but, then, someone might think it's the real word "empty". In the end, I went with a single, common term. >Maybe it's just me, never mind if this was already discussed to death. Actually, the topic hadn't come up yet. :-) >I tried cut&pasting, it took me a long time to realize it was doing it >from the braille position, not speech. That seems to make it rather >difficult to cut&paste without a display. It uses the system cursor - not the braille position. That functionality was developed, of course, before we had a speech cursor. Now, I guess, we have something else to decide. >At one point it went haywire and started doing bogus key repeats or >the last pressed key (letters, backspace...) I ended up restarting >BRLTTY. I've no idea what might've caused that. -- Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | The Bible is the very Word of God. Phone: 1-613-726-0014 | Ottawa, Ontario | 2011 May 21 is the End of Salvation.
