5.2.10 Insert from File
This command will insert another file in the current document that is
being edited. If you want to run this command, press “Space-m (dots 1-
3-4)” or “F2,” and press “Enter” on the “Edit” menu. Move to “Insert From
File” by pressing “Space-4” repeatedly. Then, press “Enter” on “Insert
From File,” or just press “I (dots 2-4)” in the “Edit” menu. While editing a
document, pressing “Enter-i (dots 2-4)” will activate this function.
When you use this option, an insert dialog box will appear just like the
open dialogue box. Select a file that you want to insert in to the current
document, and press “Enter” on the file. Then, the selected file will be
inserted at the beginning of the paragraph with your cursor.
When you execute “Insert From File,” the text inserted from the file will
be converted to the file format of the current document. Although the
saved file that you pasted was in a different formatted document, the
same file format will be kept as the current document. For example, if
you insert “sample.txt” in “sample.hbl” and save it, the saved file will be
“sample.hbl.”
Note that if you are going to insert a Braille file in a text file, the Braille
document will be translated back into a text document. You can read it in
Braille, but on rare occasions you might see differences in the translated
text.
5.2.11 Insert Date
To insert the date into your document, press “Space-m (dots 1-3-4)” or
“F2,” and then press “Enter” on “Edit” to enter into the “Edit” menu. Move
to “Insert Date” by pressing “Space-4” repeatedly. Then, press “Enter”
on “Insert Date,” or press “w (dots 2-4-5-6)” (which is the short cut) in the
“Edit” menu. Then, you can insert the current date and time where the
cursor is located in your document. If you want to insert part of the
current date and time, you can modify what you want to change after
completing the “Insert Date” command. When you are editing a
