Take the easy option, plug in a USB keyboard and type in the information
like the rest of us halfwits do <smile>.
Its the simple solutions to the problems that always work you know.

Hello everybody
I’ve stumbled upon an issue. To which I just cannot find the answer.
I’ve banged my head against so many walls that bits are starting to
fall off it! So now, I have to bug the group.
My password to log into Windows and my Microsoft account uses upper
case characters, lower case characters and digits. Using a Braille
display’s Perkins-style keyboard, how does one go about entering this
combination of characters at the Windows password prompt?
I have tried using computer Braille, no go. I’ve tried to use the
usual U+Chord command to indicate that I’m about to enter an upper
case character. No go. I obviously can’t use either literary grade 1/2
at this juncture, because in UEB and the old-style British Braille,
the dots 3, 4, 5 and 6 keystroke produces different symbols.
Any suggestions very much appreciated.
