Re: i messed up my braille display
Did you disconnect your display while Jaws was active?
Try rebooting your computer with the braille display connected and see if it sorts itself out.
Otherwise, this may be worth going through

Re: ebook editor
It’s relatively easy to use from a command prompt, and the documentation covers the various options, including the Pandoc Markdown file format.

Well, this looks like a very complicated command line tool.
I did a simple install and there are no icons and the only thing I can find on my start menu, is the user guide.

Re: Dropbox question
Alan,
Interesting. Is that also the case if say, my husband is using my computer and wants his own drop box account? I have a lot to learn. Maybe I need to go order Judy Dixon’s book on Dropbox.
