Yes, agreed. Here is the exact source of the problem as provided in the manual: In addition to normal characters and special keys, Book Port supports chorded commands. Chorded commands are made by holding down the Space while typing a letter. Often these chorded commands are defined to help you remember what they are. The F-Chord, for example, enters Book Port's Find command. This language is in both the HTML and text versions of the manual. Note that it quite specifically does not state "left space." ----- Original Message ----- From: "Kaari Parrish" <kparrish@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <bookport@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Friday, April 01, 2005 11:42 PM Subject: [bookport] Re: braille input for search string? Thanks very much. There is nowhere in the manual that says to use only one space button. All I can find says to use both, and that's why it hasn't been working. Once I tried only the left space button, of course, it works perfectly. I really think the manual itself needs a bit of an update. At least it was easy to fix! Kaari
