Seems like a reasonable assumption.

Indeed, that's one big challenge for a project like BRLTTY which aims to
support devices which are

Why not? It certainly should. Did you try and it didn't work for you? If so, do
you know the most recent earlier release that did work on Windows 10?

I believe the Bible to
Search for brltty.exe and see if it was installed.
There is also a file called run-debug.bat which should produce a log
file. I suspect that the 6.0 release doesn't work on Windows 10, but
somebody may have better results.

Hello,
Finally getting comfortable with the Focus 40 and it's starting to grow
on me.
Going through the BRLTTY help for this display, I see references to
NavRowKey and am not sure which key that might be. I know of Left/Right
Nav Up/Down and Left/Right NavPress but not sure what NavRowKey is.
