Hi, I think you use \09 and so on as the entry in the dictionary manager where you type in the word. But you might have to actually bring in the .jdf file into a text editor to do something like this. I'll try to look this up when I get a chance.

Now, is there a way to always have indentation set to identify in the jaws options? Whenever I move away from the window and back into it, my settings are set back to defaults, which is no good because I am always popping in and out of the window to run code at the command line, open other files, and so on.
