While I have everyone's attention can I ask just how important is
it to do back translation. I will confess to being a bit suprized
at the seeming interest in doing this. Just what perpous is back
translation being put to?
I have, and have access to, a huge number of materials in Braille
form, but rarely have access to Braille embossers or displays these
days. Hence, back translation is the only way of reading these
files. The back translation feature of the program will be what I
primarily use it for, in fact. Up until now I've been using an
open source DOS command line program called NFBTrans on my Windows
box, but it has become more and more of a pain as I move away from
that OS. I am far from unique in needing back translation capability.
