Brltty appears to install in leopard but the version of screen needed for brltty gives me errors for lack of sys/stropts.h. This is kind of strange because I can't find stropts.h on my Tiger installation either but the install works. I've searched with google in various ways and haven't found a solution to this problem though I've found other people missing stropts.h. I attempted using my screen executable from my Tiger install, which I knew probably wouldn't work; actually screen did apparently work but I still did not get brltty to display successfully. If anybody else tries this, please post your results so I'll know whether or not there is a real problem or I have omitted something. So far I have two reasons to keep Tiger on my firewire drive: firevox and brltty. Brltty is definitely the bigger reason; it's my only braille access on the Mac since the braillelite is not supported by Leopard; I do understand the braillelite is old technology but it's way better than no technology--*smile*!!! Of course I can also ssh in to terminal from other machines that have brltty or a screen reader with braille support, but I do like being able to use it directly on the Mac.
