No problem Andrew.  That definitely helps though.  Right now I am digging in to 
a greek text in braille.  I am very overwhelmed by the greek braille code.  I 
wish there was a supplemental greek braille code manual that I could use while 
trying to learn Greek.  Right now, I am struggling trying to understand how the 
greek braille code works.
