All the key tables are accessible via brltty's web site. Go to brltty.com,
click on Documentation, and then on Key Tables. Perhaps this fact needs to be
advertised somehow.

I might not have internet access.

I might not know how to control my web browser.

I might not know the correct name for my braille display.

Being mad at my computer because it won't do what I want, I might not have the patience to sift through a web site.

And, almost by definition, I might not be able to read the table if I get there.

Perhaps the solution is to take the website out of the banner and substitute directions for how to get to the help screen for the current device.

Or, we could come up in learn mode which would at least let us discover how to pan. Or perhaps in the help screen itself. Have a checkbox in the Preferences, unchecked by default, saying to come up in normal execution mode.

Any newbies on the list? This is where being a newbie is an advantage.
