More crotchets about BrailleMy Braille display doesn't have that either, but 
I do not know why yours would, Jill.  Sorry we can't give some help here.

Hi Jill,

I think there might be a change that we as braille display users can make. 
Unfortunately, not being a geek, and having one who fixes everything in the 
geeky arena for me, I don't know what it is.  I'm sorry I'm no help, and 
just tempting you with hopeful news.  I'll ask and see if Jon can remember 
what he might have changed to make the difference in my display.  Don't hold 
your breath though.  We both have notoreously holey memories.

Mayrie

Mayrie, Are you saying that there is a change we can make so that the 
braille display doesn't show the slash with the dots 4,5,6 preceding it?  I 
assumed this had been a change in the braille translation program Bookshare 
is using.

  Hi Kim,

  I really do think that your seeing the dots 4-5-6 before a slash is due to 
a setting in your braille device, not bookshare's processing of books.  I 
say this because I now see what you see, but didn't until we adjusted some 
setting or other in my screen reader's configuration for my braille display. 
I just never bothered to ask to have it changed back.  Maybe you could look 
into the settings on your BrailleNote?

  Mayrie

  Hi, my BrailleNote translates the slash with a three-dot combination (dots 
4-5-6) which someone remarked is an underscore sign. I hate that sign before 
the slash, so if there was any way to get rid of that I would be very happy 
indeed. Also for the word cup, I see no need for a capital sign (dot 6) 
before the letter C . just make sure there is a period after the letter. 
Regards, Kim.
