 Classic Twiddler chords were limited to any number of thumb buttons (Shift, Alt, Ctrl, Num modifier keys) plus one button from each of the 4 rows of finger buttons. Starting with Twiddler 4, Firmware 2.00, chords can be made up of multiple button presses in the same row on the Finger pad, utilizing the mini-buttons (3 buttons above the finger pad) in a chord, and the thumb buttons can be remapped to anything. So, any button can be pressed at any time to make a chord - there are no limits.  The T4 Chord Notation looks to clearly document a chord that reflects these new rules. Classic Twiddler chords were limited to any number of thumb buttons (Shift, Alt, Ctrl, Num modifier keys) plus one button from each of the 4 rows of finger buttons.

 The T4 Notation represents pressed buttons only, no blanks are denoted. This deprecates the use of "0" to indicate absence of a keypress. The T4 Notation represents pressed buttons only, no blanks are denoted. This deprecates the use of "0" to indicate absence of a keypress.

 This user’s guide and Twiddler Tuner uses a special notation to show you how to type each character and command with a factory-preset chord. As you face Twiddler’s twelve-key layout, you will find four keys (labeled SP, DEL, BS, and ENT) arranged in a column on the left. This column is designated “L”. The four keys in the middle column (E, F, G, H) are referred to as “M”. And the four keys on the right (A, B, C, D) are designated “R”. This user’s guide and Twiddler Tuner uses a special notation to show you how to type each character and command with a factory-preset chord.
