That bug has been in evidence long before the advent of Braille entry.  =
I have found it several times when text has been selected and then =
searched for, especially when the string of text is contained within =
another word.  I hope this makes sense.
I just manually skipped by those repeated strings, and never thought =
anything of it, but I'm glad I'm not the only one who ever experienced =
the situation.

I used the keyboard entry to enter a number 6 and a period to search for =
=3D
=3D3D
the sixth item in a text file which began with 6.  It stopped at the =
=3D3D
first occurrence, which was sentence which ended with the year 1996.  =
=3D3D
When I repeatedly hit the 7-9 combination, it wouldn't go past the same =
=3D
=3D3D
entry, forcing me to manually skip it to find my entry.  Is there a =
=3D3D
reason it stuck on the 1996.

Thanks.

Don
