Subject: Re: [BRLTTY] Why now each Chinese character appended a space
    automatically on braille display?

A Question as subject. Was it related to new kernel or what? Thanks!

Thanks for letting us know. Yes, you're correct, but in a totally unexpected 
way. It's now fixed in brltty's latest development code.

For the technically curious: The reason is that Unicode doesn't define a 
zero-width space as whitespace. This was totally unexpected - at least by me - 
so the code did look right but wasn't.
