We need ncurses to get the codes for these keys right. Only plain text keys can work without ncurses. > What is typing other characters supposed to do? Simulate pressing the corresponding key on the PC keyboard. But that can only work when using the Linux screen driver or running xbrlapi. And of course you risk getting a loop :) since the simulated keypress event will probably go into the xterm where you are running the TTY braille driver, and thus simulating it again, etc. Samuel _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
