[quoted lines by Brian Tew on 2018/06/24 at 08:07 -0500] >What is passdots exactly.
It's for sending braille dot combinations - usually for the keys of a braille keyboard as the user is typing - to brltty. PASSCHAR delivers a text character and PASSDOTS delivers a braille dot combination. When PASSDOTS is used, brltty has settings to either translate it into an actual braille cell character or (the default) to translate it to the corresponding text character based on the current text table. >I cannot find it in the 5.6 manual. The manual is somewhat out-of-date. If you'd like a full command list then run the (new) brltty-lscmds command. It's data comes from brltty's internal tables so it's always up-to-date. It's output is in .rst (reStructured Text) format. If you'd like an HTML copy (still a single file) then run it through rst2html. >Is the 5.6 manual available as a single file?
