Hi E, I don't have a copy of the Kurzweil manual handy, nor do I have access to K1K. The backslash is what is used in many programming languages to denote things like end of line. If you wanted to actually write a backslash, you would need to type it twice. Kurzweil uses \n for new line, \t for tab, those are the only two I know for sure off hand that are supported. Undoubtedly there are others. Microsoft Office products, like Word, use the caret (^) as the escape key sequence, ^t being for tab, to write a caret, you'd need to put two of them. These escape key sequences obviously are intended for use in Find/Replace dialogs, since often you can't just push the enter key and have that included in what you're searching for. Anyone else out there got a page you can pull out of the Kurzweil manual detailing any other keystrokes that work in the Kurzweil 1000?
