The word for the carat ^ symbol is actually spelled carat. the caret is something else, i.e, what JAWS uses as a cursor location point or somesuch. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Flor Lynch" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, April 01, 2009 2:17 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Deleting linebreaks
Thank you likewise, Brian. (My Apollo 2 synth mispronounces your caret spelling as 'caray'.) ----- Original Message ----- From: "Brian Lee" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, April 01, 2009 1:06 AM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Deleting linebreaks Hello Flor, Yes, the manual line break or soft return is caret+L as you stated. I think that most of the time in Word people are wanting to get rid of extra paragraph marks. Manual line breaks can be very handy in things like bulleted or numbered lists when a person wants a line between bullets or numbered items. Of course, a manual line feed can be used in those situations with a shift key+enter keystroke. Thank you for correcting this Flor. Take care.
