So what I’ve read so far indicates that the present gen 5 chipsets are what’s
available now on the Mac but the 6th generation is available in the windows /
non Mac world. It looks to be that the Macbook Pro will be refreshed in Q4.
The upgrades in Generation 6 chips also seem heavily based on
E.T. thanks for the link. Looks like a holding pattern is a good idea since
the new laptops are to be released in Q4. I’m still not sure if I’m really hip

Hi all,
Happily, I was able to solve the problem I was having last night. It seems

Hi,
Does any one know what a .KWT file type is on the Mac? My husband had copied a
number of .DOC & .TXT files onto the Mac and when he looked in the document
folder it was listing what was a .txt on Windows as a .KWT file extension.
Thanks.

Thanks John. I just got a bit more information from my husband. Turns out he
created the file on his Victor Reader Stream so would this have caused the
problem in copying it to the Mac? Could it be that perhaps the format is
somehow not a true .txt format? Virc mentioned in the link you sent
I don’t know. I have never heard of that format until I did a Google search.
You might want to contact HW about that if it was created on a Stream.

Hi,
A kwt file is a text file created on a HumanWare BrailleNote. The only files
you can actually create on a victor reader are recorded notes.

I have no direct knowledge of this file type either, but sometimes multiple
vendors use the same file extension. If you are at all comfortable with the
terminal do the following:
1. Copy the file in the finder.
2. open terminal.
3. type the word file and a space and then paste what you copied in
It's a braille note file.
Exact pasting:
KWT files are Text Files primarily associated with BrailleNote KeyWord text
file (HumanWare Group).

I love Google!

Now you got me wanting to read the man page for "file".

Hi Chris,
Right you are! I asked him earlier and he said he did it on the Humanware and

Yes, you’re right, I was thinking of an older device we used to have where you
could turn the device on its side and use the keys to enter in Braille. I
thought he had figured some way of doing it on the VRS. But I just responded

Chris,
Thanks for the suggestion, I had not read the manual page for file in 30 years.
I like the new option to output mime types instead of standard strings.

I have a BrailleNote Apex at work, but only really use it as a braille
terminal. Do you think this would be from the BrailleNote word processor? I
could try creating one of these files and place it on a flash drive.
