Chris,

Just had another thought.

[vss] and [vse]

George.

Invisible Text

(See also: Table of Contents)

Code Used: [vss] [vse] usually with [rpsN] [rpe] or within a
heading style

Keystroke: (None at present)

What does it do?

Starts and ends text which will not appear in the braille
document

Where would it be used?

The most common use is where you want to create an entry in
the Table of Contents which does not appear in the text
itself.

Usage in DBT:

[vss][rps1]Headache issues:[rpe][vse]
[rps2]1. Migraine - can cause dizziness[rpe]

Produces in Braille:

In the braille text:-

    #a4 ,migra9e -- c cause dizzi;s

But in the Table of Contents:-

            ,3t5ts

,*apt]                   ,page

,h1da*e issues3 """"""""""" #c

  #a4 ,migra9e -- c 

    cause dizzi;s """"""""" #c

Let us explain!
The [vss] code starts making what follows "invisible" in
print and braille in the actual main body of the document.
[rps1] indicates that what follows is to appear in the Table
of Contents, the "1" indicating the hierarchy level within
the TOC.  [rpe] ends what is to be in the TOC, and [vse]
indicates the end of the invisible text.

However, the second line will appear in the text, and be a
level 2 TOC item.
