    What we really need is a Maestro without the screen. Same form factor as the Maestro but half the size. USB cable that connects to a Flex.

    Funny that you should mention that.  I am building a "Mini Maestro" right now.  I am using the Arduino library from IW7DMH.  So far I have it working on V3.1.11, even though the libraries were designed with V2.1 in mind.  I currently have VFO, volume, mute and select slice coded and working.  It uses an Arduino Due with an ethernet shield.  I just plug into my network, and it works!  I did not put the screen on it, as it takes too many pins from the Arduino, limiting the number of knobs and switches it will support.

    Something like the E-Coder that can be purchased for the Russian MB-1 Radio. That E-Coder was awesome when I had my MB-1

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
