If you are using this line to handle voiceover on a Mac, don't you want it to 
start brltty when you start screen? Are you also doing that in your profile? I 
did have a setup so that terminal started at login and then screen started at 
login and then brltty, but that doesn't work too well (1) if you don't use 
automatic login and (2) if you have a display that voiceover grabs, so your 
suggested line might be useful here. What would really be nice would be if 
there was some way to have brltty release when it goes out of screen or at 
least when it goes out of terminal, but that probably is complicated by the 
fact that brltty has to run in screen rather than in terminal at large and 
possibly other factors that I don't understand. I really have no desire to use 
voiceover braille in terminal and don't really need voiceover speech in 
terminal either as long as brltty and my display are working, but since there 
is no way to run brltty globally on the Mac in all applications I still do need 
voiceover everywhere except in terminal. I'd love to be able to use brltty 
instead of voiceover braille on the Mac as a whole and I'd try to fit working 
on such a project into my already-overflowing schedule (which I'm sure 
everybody here has too!) but while I'm usually able to do testing, I'm afraid I 
don't know enough to actually be of help in working on development.
