[quoted lines by Samuel Thibault on 2016/11/20 at 19:25 +0100] >Any progress on this?
No. The discussion stopped before I was convinced I knew exactly what was wanted, and then I got involved in other stuff and forgot about it. As I recall: The idea is to use those strings to help decide if a brltty driver should claim a device or not. If a driver specifies a lsit of manufacturer strings then one of them must match, and/or if a driver speifies a lsit of product strings then one of them must match. Is that how you understand it? My lingring concern is that, if this feature were being used by a driver, then it'd stop recognizing a braille deivce if a slight change were made to those strings. Maybe that's an invalid concetrn. Do you know if there's some kind of understanding that those strings need to be stable or are they really just intended/used for human readability? -- Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | The Bible is the very Word of God.
