Hi,
Attached is a command summary I created a few weeks ago. I used plus, star,
and pound spelled out so screenreaders designed not to speak the symbols
would not miss the key combinations.
I hope it helps. Cliff

Bingo! I finally found it in the users guide. Does anyone have the key
guide? I tried using bp_ref.txt but the file is corrupted. Thanks, Skip

Hi List,
How do you change from a music directory back to the user's guide, or
another folder?
Thanks, Skip
