4. Word Processor
When you launch the word processor on the Braille Sense Plus B32,
the Braille Sense Plus B32 will place you in a new document that is
ready for you to write in. The menu can be opened by pressing
“space-m (dots 1-3-4)” or “F2.” Don’t worry if you can’t remember the
exact shortcut keys for each of the menu items, since you can
activate various functions of the word processor by activating the
word processor menu. The menu in the word processor consists of
file, edit, go to, read, and layout. In order to use these menus, press
“space-m (dots 1-3-4)” or “F2” in the word processor, select a menu
item, and press “enter” or press “backspace” and the corresponding
character that represents the menu item name. For example, in order
to open the edit menu, press “space-m (dots 1-3-4)” or “F2” to open
the menu, and move to the next menu by pressing arrow keys
(“space-1” and “space-4”) to find the “edit” menu, and then press
“enter.” Or, press “space-m (dots 1-3-4)” and press “e (dots 1-5),”
which represents the “edit” menu. The “edit” menu contains a lower
level menu. The “right arrow” is displayed at the end of the menu
name, and it is spoken as “pull down” after the menu name. If a
menu contains a dialog box, ”...” will be displayed after the name of
the menu, and it will be spoken as “common dialog.”
Before going in to more detail about the word processor, it is also
important to note that while you are anywhere in a document, you can
find out your location by pressing “space-1-5-6.” Also, if you are
editing a document, and turn the Braille Sense Plus B32 off while you
are editing a document, the Braille Sense Plus B32 will say the status
when you turn the Braille Sense Plus B32 back on. In the next few
sections the features of the word processor will be explained in more
detail. We will also explain the functions of each of the menu items
available in the word processor.
4.1 File Menu
The “file” menu contains the menus that will allow you to create new
documents, open documents that were saved to a disk, save any
documents that were edited, and print in Braille. It also contains
various environment setting menus. In order to select the file menu,
