So basically as far as the zip and unzip, you want the
bookshare unpack tool modified. I bet it could be done.

I agree with john and add a zip and unzip utility and a more
robust media
player.
I don't really care if we have a spreadsheet program as I wonder
how many
blind folks really know how to use one.
I would also like a more robust email program with filtering,
html support,
etc.
I also assume people will want daisy and audible at some point,
but I'd
rather use my bookport for those since it has a longer battery
life.
And while we are on batteries, I wonder if the company that makes
the
batteries for the classic and MPower could make an extended life
battery?
Also would like to know if any car chargers will work with the bn
as more
and more of these are becoming available for everything from dvd
players to
laptops to game consoles.

Hi
I find it hard to believe that I am agreeing
with....him...*grin* but I
must add my own very firm and loud vote for this as well. No
offense to HW,
but the current File Manager is an absolute pain in the you know
what.
In addition to Rich's suggestion, I'd also like to see a
cut and paste
kind of command one can use to copy files in a much easier manner
as well as
a way to tag multiple files for copying them. The process of
constantly
having to go back and typing out names can be very frustrating if
you have
several files that the wild card string won't simplify.

Rich Ring wants an overhaul of the file manager.
I've asked him, and since we know one another reasonably well, he
has
decided to share his inner desires with me.
I would like to see the file manager be a more integrated piece
of software.
Let me give you an example.
Ok, so I'm at the main menu.
I press f for file manager, and d for directory.
I now should see the root directory of a given drive.
I should be able to arrow down to a folder, and when I come to
the one I
want, I should be able to press enter to open it.
First letter navigation should also work.
When I come to a file I want, I should be able to press enter,
and that file
should open. Whether that file is an audio file, or a Keysoft
supported
file, that is how I would like it to work.
Forget this control-t or space with t.
This is my humble request, and I know that I am probably in the
minority.
But, at one time, the majority thought the earth was flat!
(smile) The Pac
Mate does it, the Braille Sense does it, so I hope some day the
Braillenote
will do these things as well.

hi fellow braillenote fans. I was on the phone with Dean
Jackson the
other day and was extolling the virtues of adding a financial
transaction
component to keysoft.
Now is the time we should submit our desires for such a program,
just
a
simple checkbook utility like charles crawford's talking
checkbook
program.
So, I am officially casting my vote for our illustrious
marketing
manager's ears, OK MOSEN!
