Hi,
I am posting this on behalf of another.
We have a file which was saved as Braille from an email
attachment.
Now, the trouble is that this file contains html.
We would like to get the meaningful text out of it.
I have tried all sorts of things but with no success.
My feeling is that the BN needs persuading to see the contence of
the file as Ascii.
Then perhaps the html it contains can be made into text.
When viewing the file it has an "English USA" Braille indicator
at the beginning.
I have tried backspace to delete it but it won't go.
I have tried import/export on the file, translating it, simply
saving it as Ascii, but the only change I can get is that the
Braille contractions are expanded.
This means for example, all the "/" characters become "st".
Unfortunately, if I tried to suggest to the BN that the Ascii
file was really html, it would get very confused.
Some other things noted while viewing the file: dots 2-3-6 are
pronounced "lower H"; there are many "less-than" and
"greater-than" spelled out as in those quotation marks; the top
line of the file mentions XMLNS rather than html.
How can we decode this Braille html?
Very many thanks for suggestions and comments.
Regards,
Steve.
