Third spruce tree on the left

Back in the #windows95 days I used a #Windows #explorer (#shell) replacement called #LiteStep - it was highly customizable and skinnable which was its appeal, but it was buggy as crap. But one of the BIG plusses for me was #bang #commands in a special `bang` widget on your desktop. A bit like throwing something into the cortana/search widget on your taskbar, you could define `!foo` to open `foo.txt` instead of searching in `explorer.exe`.

Does anyone know a good w10/w11 bang widget?

In iOS 18, Braille Screen Input got a major overhaul. One of the main new features is Command Mode. This allows you to navigate your phone while never leaving Braille Screen Input.

If you are like me and have never used a Braille Display, you are not going to automatically know the commands that can be used.

Please find below a list of commands that can be used while in Command Mode of Braille Screen Input. I have tested all of the below commands to make sure they work. But please know that since I have never used a Braille display, I might have missed some.

Toggle from Braille Entry to Command Mode, 3 Finger swipe to the left or right.
