[quoted lines by Kevin Fjelsted on 2016/09/02 at 06:00 -0500]

>How is it that the Edge arrows work correctly in Nano or other editors then? 

They don't. They're navigation keys - not arrow keys. They change which part of 
the screen is being shown on the braille display. That's all. You'll find that 
the screen cursor isn't following this motion.

>Also the cursor routing keys work.

Yes, because they do send actual arrow keys.

>How do we make an application aware of these? Is this the BRLTTY-API that you 
>previously referred to?

Yes. If you'd like your program to take over the functionality of those keys 
then you'll need to use BrlAPI.

>Is there doc on this?

Yes.
