Thanks. I've been thinking about this since at least 2 years, but finally found the time to actually try and implement it myself. It turned out that it wasn't so hard. Our quite nice internal API made this rather easy. > Another very useful thing is to verify rule coverage.

No, as far as I know, this is not possible yet. If I understand things correctly, this would involve a change to the contraction table translation code (ctb_translate.c). We'd probably just need a use-count for every rule. brltty-ctb could then emit/describe all rules with a use-count of 0 if a certain flag is passed (something like --coverage). I actually thought about something similar just recently. Maybe I will take a look at this, but I can not really promise anything just yet. -- CYa, ⡍⠁⠗⠊⠕ | Debian Developer <URL:http://debian.org/> .''`. | Get my public key via finger mlang/[email protected] : :' : | 1024D/7FC1A0854909BCCDBE6C102DDFFC022A6B113E44 `. `' `- <URL:http://delysid.org/> <URL:http://www.staff.tugraz.at/mlang/> _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
