I am not sure your exact need, but the “brf” file format represents all 64 possible braille combinations as regular characters and punctuation. for example the equals sign in Nemeth braille (dots 46 followed by dots 13 is represented in BRF as “.k” I have a web site that we were doing testing with that allows you to use the sdf and jkl characters to input Braille which is then represented on screen with the Unicode Braille glyphs. I believe somebody also wrote a regular Macintosh program that looks for multiple keydowns and waits until all keys are released before interpreting as a Braille input.
Anybody know if Braille Blaster has this functionality? That would be pretty neat!
