>Can one switch to input mode from the client's side, by calling some >brlapi_... function, or must it always be done by the user? The core doesn't support the concept of multiple modes. It's all based on how the driver itself maps key combinations to core commands. To be more accurate, that's how it used to be, but the new way is still similar in effect from a user perspective. The new way is to define the bindings in key tables, to have the driver send key press/release events to the core, and to have the core translate the key events into commands via the key tables. Still, the core is doing a blind translation as it's simply applying the rules contained within the key tables. >Where can I find the key combinations for the different braille terminals to >switch to input mode? Or is this only neccessary with the ht driver? The HandyTech driver, and the Papenmeier driver's support for the BrailleX 2D Screen, are the only ones which come to mind at the moment which still work this way. -- Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | The Bible is the very Word of God.
