The thing is that text input injection is a clear security concern, so you'd expect some resistance to allowing it back in. If you really read the thread (tty: Allow TIOCSTI to be disabled) you won't actually see reluctance. Just a rehash of why brltty is doing it this way and not another. That's only to be expected, to avoid XY problem issues. Samuel _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
