I have the same situation in the office and I would really like a side by side reference list. Having used both models at different times, I can tell you their individual command structures vary quite widely in some areas. There are some areas where the corresponding commands are similar enough to be intuitive, this appears to be the exception rather than the rule. So if this new command were to be implemented, there would almost certainly be two totally different commands. Hope this wasn't too confusing.

I will think about the chord e but I really would like to see a common command for as many of the commands as possible for the two units. Perhaps this is already there however. BTW is there a side by side list of the two sets of commands for the bn and bnqt ? If so I sure cold use it to help others in the office solve problems. thank you!

Why not make use of an already existing function, space with e one more exit to a keylock shouldn't hurt. Another space with e would activate it again. In fact I reckon that keylock should go one step further. Take away the on off switch altogether, and why not do as you suggested use space with the six dot combo or something for the qt to turn the machine on. Another failsafe method would be to have the space with e and bn would say exit to keylock sure type in y and it goes there. Then space with e to open it again and activate keys sure y again and keys are activated.

On a QT keyboard there are typos. On a BT keyboard, you could be Brailling away and suddenly hit the spacebar along with dot 1, and instead of Brailling a letter a, you have just gone to the top of your file. Both are user error but they result in different problems.

And only people who are relatively fast braillists will ever experience it, and it will by definition have to be a Braille (Perkins style) keyboard. -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Terri Pannett Sent: Thursday, May 27, 2004 9:15 PM To: Braillenote List Subject: Re: [Braillenote] taking notes at high speed I think QWERTY keyboards are less likely to have this problem because the space bar is not used in chords.
