Plover, Realtime Coach, and EV360

[Glen Warner]

I am curious about something.

This past week, the folks at Realtime Coach offered a free one week trial, so I decided to sign up.

I loaded a Q&A drill, and when I hit the Q bank for the first question, the screen I was in went blank, with just a "Go Back" arrow.

I sent an e-mail to Support, and was told that -- well. Let me do some copying and pasting:

Hi, Glen,

 

Based on what you described, it sounds like there are Tabs or curly quotes in your dictionary. This is especially common in Q & A situations. When the Tab or curly quote is initiated from the dictionary, the cursor is sent out of the transcript window and then triggers the Check Transcript button or another button on the screen. You’ll need to remove any instances of either of these items to prevent this from happening in the future.

 

Please let me know if I can help with anything else.

 

Best Regards,

Tech Support Dude

Well, okay ... so that's not his real name.

Anyway, while it would be fairly easy to create a basic Q&A dictionary without the tabs, I still find it troubling, since our outlines are basically the same as those in Eclipse, that there appears to be a problem with those Q&A outlines in Plover ... and I have a *LOT* of Q&A outlines:

plus there's the fact that Realtime Coach is the platform that the NCRA has chosen for their members to test for certification.

 ... which leads me to ask about EV360.

When I was attending CCR  (the College of Court Reporting), they developed their own training platform called EV360. It was also suggested to be the NCRA's new certification platform, but somehow lost out to RTC. Unfortunately, I don't believe Plover was far enough along to attract my attention at the time I was at CCR, so I don't know if it works with Plover, which leads me to this question:

Has anybody used Plover with EV360?

Thanks ...
