Hmmm, I wonder if there's a method to speak something without brailling it?
That could solve the problem.

Subject: RE: Braille Display Question with Speak
Hi J.J.,
I too have the same issue; I've been writing a large application, and
unfortunately haven't considered the needs of braille users. in
particular,
I've been formatting badly pronounced strings so that speech would
pronounce
them better. I haven't been giving any attention to how a braille user
would feel about the changes I'm making to the text.
have other scripters tackled this issue? is the only thing to do to make
use of exception dictionaries but nothing else, or have others done
anything
more elaborate?
my reformatting of strings is often only possible because I know the
context
of the meaning of the string at the time it's generated; processing it
later
on, say with an exception dictionary, would not yield anything like as
good
results.
thanks for any ideas.
Chip

Subject: Braille Display Question with Speak
Have a seemingly obvious question, but I don't have a braille display so
am
not sure. If I want a message to go on the braille display as well as
speak,
do I need to use speak as well as braille.display with the appropriate
check
for a braille display or will speak also braille the message by default?
Or is there a way to do both at once, short of message boxes and dialogs?
Thanks.
