Boy, what an interesting concept. I can't wait to hear from the listers
on this. I do use ascii sometimes. I also use direct braille in
duxbury pretty often. That also utilizes ascii symbols.

Subject: [duxuser] Why Six-key Entry?
Noting the recent questions about Perky Duck reminded me once again of
my curiosity about six-key entry. Why do transcribers use six-key
instead of ASCII Braille? One reason for asking this question is I'm
wondering if the transcriber shortage in the US would be eased if
transcribers weren't expected to learn six-key.
Thanks,
SusanJ
