Hi Joseph:

Thanks a trillion for the comparisons. To be sure I understand the last part of your message pertaining to the Apex, permit me to tell a little story, <smile>!

I have an older BrailleNote running Keysoft 5.1 Build 22, and an MPower that I can't use because it was DOA when it got to me; I had bought it from a seller on one of the buy and sell blindness-related mailing lists.

Anyway, back to my ancient Keysoft 5.1. Using this BrailleNote I can write words like: piece(s), buy(s), look(s)--you get the idea! On this BrailleNote, no spaces are inserted between the last character and the one appearing in parentheses. In fact, the words appear the way I have them written.

Now back to the Apex--if I understand your take on my note to the list, does the Apex leave a space between the last character and a character appearing in parentheses? Example: look (dots 5-6s). Also, does the Apex insert a dot 4 and dots 3-4 to represent the slash character? Is there a way I can tell the Apex that I DO NOT wish to have Braille apearing on my notetaker screen in this way?

Sorry I don't have the Apex to try things out. I could not come up with the $2,399 or so needed to upgrade this dead MPower to the Apex. Moreover, I am disappointed that Humanware did away with the Compactflash Card.

I hope my long-winded explanation does make some modicum of sense. Thanks for your help!

Sincerely,
Olusegun
