Hello Chris
OK, if NVDA doesn't support Gordon's display we'll have to leave it alone for
now I think. Sadly we don't have the time to mess around configuring difficult
to configure programmes just at the moment. The reason for that is that
Gordon's taking his laptop to hospital with him tomorrow. He has his own room
and they've told him it's alright. But Braille is a must have, so that speech
doesn't interfere with other patients; and also for security reasons. It could
present a security risk if he has sensitive information being verbalised. So we
need something that gives Gordon Brille.

It is quite difficult to set up Braille with NVDA. Only a few displays are
supported natively while the rest requires installation and configuration of
BrlTTY, a free and open source piece of software that supports a variety of
displays and runs on multiple platforms. For this scenario you would choose
BrlTTY as the Braille display for NVDA. This is why in my opinion the
commercial screen readers kick when it comes to Braille support. I'm sure this
will improve over time but this is what we have for now.

Hello everybody
Could somebody tell me how to configure this please? I've checked but nothing
immediate springs to mind.
Thank you.
