Hail, all ...

I'm afraid I've been having trouble around receiving regular digests recently, 
and have only now caught up properly with the list; so it feels not quite 
appropriate to take up where I left off way back.

That said, however, I still do believe that the 5,0 braille translation upgrade 
has had a downgrading effect for me; particularly with the disappearance of the 
Braille Exceptions Table, whereby the translation program could be instructed 
to deal with particular sequences in ways peculiar to your own requirements.

That's the first of my suggestions: PLEASE bring the Braille Exceptions Table 
back!

My second upgrading suggestion is a lock by which space and dot instruction 
combinations on the BT can be switched off for people such as myself, whose 
co-ordination isn't perhaps what it might be, to prevent us inadvertently 
straying into "block commands", to the top of our document, into "find?", or 
into inserting a tab, etc when we're doing straightforward text writing, 
note-taking and so on.

I've been told from the head office here in Britain that the return of the 
Braille Exceptions Table is on the agenda.  Could someone from Pulsedata say 
further, if so, and when, as well as comment on my second suggestion.

'Bye for now,
John Goddard.
