Thank You for all the work you have done to provide good information to ‘beginners’ let me. Best, Lewis R. Lowden (Just a young 63 yo DAV).
Is there a list of symbols like -
quote marks; dot,dot,dot, etc. that are used in google searches and where do I find this list to aid me ???
Thanks. I am also a bit of an adult beginner.
You have clarified some issues for me, especially since the Google help sites work like advertisements.
For the purposes of accessibility, I suggest that you do not use “”"-marks.
