Dave, if what could be changed? I'm not sure what you are asking?

This is why I said the file is designed for reading on a braille display.   HTH,     Richard, USA “Reality is the leading cause of stress for those who are in touch with it.” – Jane Wagner, from The Search for Signs of Intelligent Life in the Universe.   My web site: https://www.turner42.com       From: viphone@googlegroups.com <viphone@googlegroups.com> On Behalf Of Peter Tesar Sent: Tuesday, October 21, 2025 6:15 AM To: viphone@googlegroups.com Subject: , In braille screen input, how to do a triple swipe up & get the slash   Thanks Richard for passing on the link to the documents of braille contractions. I also listened to the mp3 audio recording. With Jaws, looking at your list of contractions listed alphabetically, I got as far as the “b”s. the “b” contractions start with the number 2.  Maybe a mistake?    Earlier, I got a list of the Command Mode commands. You can get the app switcher with a double tap of the letter “h”:    Press dot one, dot two and dot five together twice How (in command mode) to close the highlighted app and move left right through a number of open apps?   In braille entry, what are the dots for the forward slash character used in a URL address?    http://www...   Peter T.

I gather you have a braille display, so the BRF files could be used on it. There is an MP3 file where I recorded some and a Word document for braille commands when using an Aple device. They can be found at: https://www.turner42.com/Braille.html   There is also some fun stuff there.

I only remember the alphabet and common punctuations. At university I knew grade 3 braille and the Nemeth code. Most of that is now forgotten.   What we now have is Unified English braille. Is there a table list to help? How would I use the 8 dot braille?   Peter T. -- The following information is important for all members of the V iPhone list.   If you have any questions or concerns about the running of this list, or if you feel that a member's post is inappropriate, please contact the owners or moderators directly rather than posting on the list itself.   Your V iPhone list moderator is Mark Taylor.
