1608 -
160801 - Follow up ref SDS 9 0000, ref SDS 8 0000.
160802 -
160803 - Adopted a new character for a bullet in SDS records and documents so
160804 - this is faster to enter than prior method in profile level 3. Now
160805 - Ctrl d can be used to enter a diamond character, and all of the
160806 - various systems will recognize this for processing unordered lists.
160807 - This complements the work on 021107 to add automated support for
160808 - ordered lists and outlining. ref SDS 10 0001

161202 -
161203 - Follow up ref SDS 9 W16K.
161204 -
161205 - Gary recently suggested using another symbol for a bullet. He feels
161206 - that F1 F1 F6 is a lot of key strokes to use over and over, and the
161207 - current design does not move the cursor into position.
161208 -
161209 - [On 021110 notified Gary Johnson. ref SDS 11 0001
161211 - ..
161212 - Yesterday did some experimenting and proposed using Ctrl d which
161213 - enters a diamond shaped character. We are currently using it in SDS
161214 - records to symbolize Documents Received Today (DRT) in the Reference
161215 - field, and it has not caused any problems.
161217 - ..
161218 - Received ref DRT 1 0001 from Gary saying Ctrl d is okay, because it
161219 - improves the current four key stroke system. ref DRT 1 7M5O
161221 - ..
161222 - The current code deliberately does not move the cursor, so there must
161223 - have been a reason. I think the idea was to make it easy to add a
161224 - bullet to a vertical list using the down arrow key.
161226 - ..
161227 - I am not thrilled with char 4 - it is distinction, but harsh.
161228 -
161229 - Ctrl d
161230 - Ctrl e
161231 - Ctrl f
161232 - Ctrl g
161233 - Ctrl h Jumps back one space
161234 - Ctrl i Jumps ahead 6 positions enters nothing
161235 - Ctrl o
161237 - ..
161238 - The character for Ctrl I is a small centered o, but Ctrl I does not
161239 - enter that symbol. It jumps the cursor ahead. So afraid if we have
161240 - bunch of these symbols in the file, it would wind up causing trouble.
161242 - ..
161243 - Ctrl o is okay, but too awkward to use regularly.
161245 - ..
161246 - Actually, char 249 would be great because it is an oversized dot that
161247 - is centered like a bullet. However, there is no apparent way to
161248 - execute it. We could assign it to a function key, but then we have
161249 - the problem of multiple key strokes that this effort seeks to remedy.
161251 - ..
161252 - On balance will stick with Ctrl d because it is fast and easy to use
161253 - and looks adequate, if not great. Maybe others will feel it is okay.
161255 - ..
161256 - There is a littel bit of work to accomplish this improvement because
161257 - the bullet char has to be reflected in the....

161609 - =013F06 * Bullet -- -- listed items
161611 - ..
161612 - Unplugged assignment of F1 F1 F6 to the bullet macro 126
161613 - because, with Gary's prompting investigation showed that Ctrl D
161614 - will enter a diamond symbol that is not harmful and can be used
161615 - for a bullet. Cntrl D is easier to enter than F1 F1 F6, and it
161616 - advances the cursor off of the character.
161618 - ..
161619 - pf6 macro 1282
161620 - =013F06 * Double Underline Headings

161622 - Changed assignment of the double underline feature created
161623 - recently on 021016, ref SDS 3 KV9O, from F1 F1 F7, to F1 F1 F6,
161624 - since F6 at level 3 is now available because we have abandoned
161625 - the bullet, per above.
161627 - ..
161628 - Since F1 F1 F5 is the single underline, making F1 F1 F6 for a
161629 - double underline an adjacent assignment provides complementary
161630 - functions in an ergonomic configuration which is easier to

280306 - build a doc log format on line 14 and there are not enough lines in a

280308 - fields to line 10. That solved the problem, but required adjusting
280309 - the line where the various formats are entered. I made some relative
280310 - and this required further fine tunning. Not everything is shown
