Yep! Braille for me, but only with BRLTTY, and only at the command line in
text mode. That is the complete braille experience, IMO. At all other times,
it's essentially required that you have speech, which is really no good for
anything except reading numbers over the phone.

Hello Folks,
After several discussions about using braille, I decided to pair my BrailleNote

I'm trying to learn some new tricks in Amadeus Pro and I'm trying to
figure out how to use the envelopes to do a little audio ducking and the like.
So far I'm having no luck because I can't even get the option to become
available. It's always dimmed no matter what I do.

I find personally that since I've been using a braille display, reading
one line at a time versus an entire page of braille. Not only does it
not make my hands and fingers as tired, but also my arms and shoulders.
Also, I love the cursor routing keys if I am doing extensive text editing.

I know that braille displays made braille accessible to me in a way that
revitalized my interest in using it. I found a single line at a time much less
daunting than a 5 or 10 volume bralle book. As for thermoform... Don't get me
started, especially in the muggy south west ontario summer.

Hi,
You can't re-order columns, but if you stop interacting and just use ordinary
arrows, it will read the sender, subject and some of the message automatically,
so you have the choice.
