For those who already use the double slash to uncontract contractions or to prevent unwanted letter signs, here is another use. If you have a running header in a document but you need a blank line to appear at the top of a particular page, e.g. to mark a new section or chapter, at the place where you want the blank line you can type the two forward slashes, press Enter and press Enter again. The result is a nice empty line in the braille document. As always when using the double slash, these would show up in the print version of the document. Hope this helps someone. It certainly helps me.
