Hi.
Hit 8+9 to find the next occurrence of the string, 7+8 to find the previous

Thanks for this new beta, and just in time for my presentation, too!
Question: After entering the text string in Braille, how do I get the bp to
move to the requested string. If I hit enter, I don't seem to move to it.
Thanks much.
Amy
