Hello all,

I would like to have your opinions about he braille evolutions in osx:

Since the introduction of braille in 10.5, only a few changes are made:
adding more supported displays in 10.5.x
adding more braille-tables in 10.6.x
and I believe in 10.7: a few configuration-options to configure the 
popup-messages.
If I remind well, this is all that is changed in the braille settings.

Since I use my macbook air in a course I follow, I discover that it’s very hard 
to use osx without speech.

What is still missing in my opinion after 6 years of evolution from 10.5 to 
10.10:
1- no option for word wrapping: this can be useful for fast reading (loudly);
2- no different modes line, structured, speech (like in jaws): specialy 
structured mode in jaws is configurable, type of controls is shown, 
interaction-levels could be shown on this way. 
It’s e.g. very frustrating if you are in a text area and you can read all with 
the braille-line but you can’t edit or simply move the cursor to any position 
that is visible on the braille display.

3- to know if quicknav is on/off before moving isn’t possible also.
On this way , it’s very easy to lose your position in a text-area or a window.

4- In some cases, the text that’s in the voiceover cursor is (always) 
underlineed with dots 7-8. On this way , no other attributes are shown and the 
cursor isn’t shown. If dots 7,8 are turned off, the cursor isn’t visible at all 
and capitals aren’t shown also.

5- When i put the cursor on a letter in a text I delete a .(dot) sign on the 
left sign of the cursor and voiceover says sometimes something else.

Any hints, solutions, corrections on this points are very welcome.

Kind regards,
William Windels
