My latest design, the proto3, now with a whopping 42 keys.
There are no easy/standard steno chords for typing keyboard shortcuts (e.g. Ctrl+S to save file). (I like to use [Emily's Modifier Dictionary](https://github.com/EPLHREU/emily-modifiers) for this.)

Can Plover be used to type formulas?
You can easily extend Emily Symbols to do whatever symbols you like. You can also use Emily Modifiers to take advantage of any keyboard shortcuts that exist in the editor you are using.

My very cursed keyboard [Hyper 7 R3]
Have a gander at this theory component dictionary for modifiers as an example of what's possible.

Career Change
On this end, I am a big fan of the ProCAT writers, mostly because of the communications protocol they use, which allowed me to connect my writer to my laptop, start my CAT of Choice (then digitalCAT, now Plover), and start writing. No need to mess around tapping keys to make sure it's working; it was just ready to go.

Need Help please
please look at the setup instructions if you did not already do it. The Stentura 8000 and 8000LX are compatible with Plover. The instructions are the same as the 400SRT and can be found here. Please tell us if that worked!

What are some good keyboard options that you can do stenography with
You also have dedicated keyboards for a bit less than $250, which can be specifically used for stenography, and might work better if you want a regular keyboard for normal typing, and a stenography keyboard separately.

Where can I buy a steno keyboard or Michela machine for PC?
You can also try the Plover discord server, and go especially to the 'Italian' and 'theory development' tabs. I know I've seen people discussing the Michela machine on the theory development tab just recently, and there are other people working with the machine there who can help you. I think a lot of people are making their own keyboards as well. I have some other links for you to check out along those lines. The Michela machine channel, Michela Stenotype And The Universal Alphabet, and there are a few github and other such sites that will be useful here, here, here, here, here, and here.

Output gets mixed up
Build Plover from source and apply a patch that enables the option of adding a delay between each emulated key event

Failure to select text using #Shift in Plover commands
Are you able to select text on its own with Plover (without the bolding command)? If not, I think your numlock might be enabled. Apparently that leads to issues on Windows (https://github.com/openstenoproject/plover/issues/1531).

Stentura 400 SRT issue with Plover / connecting, details in comments
Plover recognizes that a USB cable is attached, but I have been able to detect my Stentura and I cannot get the red light to turn on regardless of what I do. Any help would be appreciated. I followed the instructions from : https://github.com/openstenoproject/plover/wiki/How-to-setup-and-use-Plover-with-a-Stentura-400SRT

Any experience with Plover (stenography)?
For a brief test, I downloaded the appimage from here, provided the executable bit and launched it successfully from the CLI

Imitating the function of Plover's -G, -S, and -D.
If you look at the code for the English Stenotype implementation, there are four specific keys defined in SUFFIX_KEYS, namely -G, -S, -D, and -Z. That means those are the only keys for which this will work, and only individual keys added as a suffix. That's why adding just -D works, but adding -DZ will not.
What are some alternatives?
