That isn't a very secure way to do it. Perhaps you aren't using a distributin that sets all of this up properly for you. You did say that it came with 5.5, which would be rather out-of-date. >BRLTTY is initially configured to use US Computer Braille for keyboard input >https://brltty.app/doc/Manual-BRLTTY/English/BRLTTY-6.html >https://brltty.app/doc/Manual-BRLTTY/English/BRLTTY-14.html That's how it used to be. These days, the default is locale-based autoselection. In your log, you'll find: using autoselected text table: en_GB >But when I try to type anything else in Computer Braille for example the at >sign, which is supposed to be dots 4 and 7, or Computer Braille numbers, I >don't get the output I expected. That's because your default is to use UK computer braille. -- I believe the Bible to be the very Word of God: http://Mielke.cc/bible/ Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | WebHome: http://Mielke.cc/ EMail: [email protected] | Ottawa, Ontario | Twitter: @Dave_Mielke Phone: +1 613 726 0014 | Canada K2A 1H7 | _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
