Jason, Welcome. I use terminal regularly. I do not use a number pad and have a Mac book Pro. The Braille support is the same commands as voice-over. You cannot separate the braille cursor from the voice-over cursor. Hense, if you issue vi-up arrow to move up a line. The same command (function) is what occurs on the braille display.
Commands I use: vo up and down arrow to navigate through the history buffer vo left and right to move by word shift vo left and right is by char of course. vo l - read current line. There isn’t any commands under voice-over that I have found which takes you to the beginning or end of the line in the buffer like there is with Speakup or Window screen readers. If you want to access via serial, you can use screen /dev/<name> Again, I find vo doesn’t read at the beginning of the line when using screen via a serial port to my cisco routers. I am not sure if this is a setting issue or terminal emulation. Emacs does work with Vo as well in the terminal.
