Seriously? Let's not start quibbling over what term is used for things.
The list traffic is enough without this useless type of message. Whether
the term "space with," or "cord" is used, I think we get the intent of
the meaning behind the message.
Thanks - Moderator.

Can I ask you to reconsider the term "chord"! Those were always used,
hitherto; to relate to using the space key as a modifyer to get control
hcaracters; S chord for Status, P chord for Print, O chord for Options, and
things like that.
The six dots for the character or symbol are just that, unshifted or
modified in any way.

Subject: Re: Introducing BrailleTouch - an iPhone app for typing in braille
on your touchscreen
Hi Kawal,
With BrailleTouch, you type each braille chord on your touchscreen with the
same six fingers you would use on a Perkins Brailler or similar keyboard.
The app will speak each character you type immediately. You can also choose
to hear each word you type, or both characters and words, from VoiceOver.
BrailleTouch reads each character as soon as you lift your fingers off the
touchscreen. Grade 2 is our top priority for a future update.
Best,
Caleb

I will have to try it, however, I normally use a braille display with my I
phone. Type-in-Braille was what I was referring to. In the past when I
tried that one, I found it very difficult to use because when you pressed
a
combination of letters, the keys use to stay down and so the correct
letters never got written as I could never understand what to do with it.
How different will this be, will the keys instantly come up as if you were
typing on a perkins? How will we know that a letter has been completed,
will Voice Over just anounce it and we know that it's been done? I
encourage you to get grade 2 out as soon as possible.
Kawal.
