I'd like it to behave like an existing bluettoth braille display such that iOS actually recognized it, and forward write requests and keypresses across to a BrlAPI server. IOW, I'd like to connect an old serial display to a "modern" OS which lacks support for it directly. I guess the simplest way would be to leave the underlying protocol alone, and just tunnel the bytes from one comm. type to another (bluetooth -> serial). However, this might fail if the other end is picky about protocol and/or has bad backwards compatibility. So emulating a device which is similar to the one in use is probably also a good option. In my case, I am trying to connect an old serial Vario to iOS. I guess the best option I have here is to enable a Brailliant BI 40? -- CYa, ⡍⠁⠗⠊⠕ _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
