Hi.
        I like Garry's suggestion, and see no problem in assuming the search
would go forward, not backward. BTW, might it be possible for other
keystrokes or chords might be used for backward searching (the question mark
chord on the Blazie machines comes to mind)?

Would it be acceptable to assume that the search is to proceed in the =
forward direction?

I tried the new find command with the use of the keyboard for
entry. This is a fantastic feature and certainly improves the
flexibility of the unit.

One thought is that pressing enter might be made not only to exit
the braille entry mode but to initiate the find if the only
reason for the entry mode is to perform that function. I end up
repositioning the unit after braille entry so I can have the
correct orientation to press the find button and if what I'm
looking for isn't found, I need then to reorient the unit and do
another find. Better to know before placing the unit back in the
regular orientation whether or not my find is successful.
