This is an important information I missed to infer so far. ( though I was looking at braille and related technical material occasionally for the last couple of months; but with out an actual device). Thank you very much. So just to confirm, in my scenario of entering the text "ab" on a braille device, a is dot-1 b is dot 1-2 For letter "b", the brltty's ONE readKey() will get the unicode (or brltty code) corresponding to dot-1-2 in an actual device (just one read) . Unlike the way i initially understood as it require two readKey() for the letter "b".
