Anisio, In braille dot six is the capital sing. When you write a dot six it
means that the letter that follows it is an uppercase (capitalized) letter.
Instead of writing a dot six before each letter of a word that is to be
capitalized, the rule in braille is that you place two dots six side by side.
This indicates that the whole word is to be regarded as capitalized.
If you do this with the Braille Plus, it will translate the word as a word
written entirely in upperdcase.
I hope this helps.
Fred

I'm sorry, can you be a bit more specific? The two dot 6s is that a chord?
I'm not following.

In Braille, use two dot 6s. In computer braille, there is no caps lock
function, so it would be done letter by letter.

Folks,
How do you enter capital letters? Is there a way to capitalize the whole
word easily?

I just found out a couple of days ago about a new google page that is
designed for mobile access, which also makes it much easier for screen
reader users.
I now have it set as my home page on the Braille Plus.
www.google.com/m
I'd suggest folks try it out and see how you like it.
