hello my sentence may have been mistranslated (google translation) .
What I hope for the next update, it is a confirmation when making a clear in the program editor currently erases the code.
Arghh !!! because it just happened to me in error on an unsaved program.
Sorry, if it is not very correctly translated .

I guess the dots indicate three letters with which the k is forming an english word, further indicating TW isn't pleased with this part of the firmware

...or k is like in the Ham code (or morse code): it means "received"

Morse Code CW abbreviation:
-.- (K) means "Invitation to transmit, as your turn at the (K)ey"
._. (R) means "(R)eceived"
.- .-. ... -.- (AR SK) {End of message, (S)ilent (K)ey}

In texting, my very young teenage granddaughter uses 'K' as shorthand for "Okay", which is often a misrepresentation of "I may have to accept what you sent, but I don't agree with what you said."
If spoken, she would utter it as a long drawn out vowel sound for the 'O,' and 'K' in Okay ... possibly due to doppler shifting as she trundles away, in fashionable ignorance of those her elder, while eagerly hoping to bump into a junk food stash along her exit route. -Bless her-

yes, Dale, you are right!
commonly K is meant also as "ok, I know, now talk..."; not so correct but more or less...
So, Tim abbreviated for .-. -.- (R, K), isn't it?
...-.

Perhaps, the world would might be a better place if, we could just find that perfect common language for us all!
If not esperanto, maybe we could learn the language of otherworldly aliens: mental telepathy! (There are otherworldly aliens, aren't there? It does exist, doesn't it?) With my luck, the telepathy would be in RPN, and as dyslexic as my mind seems to be, I would be forever locked in a mobius strip mind warp!

EDIT: however the issue is too serious: I had a bad experience two weeks ago: program cleared without confirmation
