Hello Dave (and everyone else on the list with an interest in this issue) Here are my test findings.
1. With Dave's patch applied, the INKA and its status cells operate correctly, with appropriate options appearing in the preferences menu. 2. The same is true for the Brailliant 40 uwith the Baum protocol enabled. 3. With the HandyTech protocol, the results are equally bad with or without the patch: the last 4 or 5 cells in the braille window are blank, and after moving to the next window, the first 4 or 5 cells are also blank (even though there is text that should be present in both cases). 4. The PowerBraille protocol 1 is hard to test because the display keys don't navigate normally, i.e., there is a difference in the assignment of functions to key combinations that makes it hard to navigate around the terminal. I'm not sure whether this is supposed to happen... I suspect not. I haven't looked at the other PowerBraille protocol yet, as the protocols other than Baum clearly have their anomalies (or should I say "bugs"?). Again, Dave's patch didn't worsen the situation with the PowerBraille protocol. testing was done with the university's Brailliant 40, with 2004 firmware. I can test with mine when it has been serviced. I hope this helps. _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
