Hi Greg,
I can't remember off hand the order you have to put the switches in
but they are tm=13 and on=2 if memory serves. The order is necessary
for the program to run at all, but those are the ones required. Hope
that helps.

Josh, or anyone else, would you happen to know what the command
line switch is in NFBtrans to do a back translation? I will
implement NFBtrans as the back translator if I can figure it out.

Hi Greg,
I'm guessing that the Mac Port of NFBTrans is command line based.
Any chance of incorperating it as an alternative translation
engine in the Louis program, specificly for back translating and
possibly other tasks? It has been my experience that not all
translation engines are created equal, and having an alternative
engine in the Louis GUI might be handy. NFBTrans does back
translation flawlessly in my experience. Just a thought. Thanks
for all your hard work.

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.
