Ah, that makes sense. Thanks for the clarification, and best of luck on this.

Yes, this is absolutely not just an interesting and novel project to do for the
fun of it though you could enjoy that too if you like a challenge! Tracking and
using braille in terminal, at least for me, works way better with brltty than
with voiceover's braille. Plus you don't get all those lin
Hi, Alex,
VO works ok with the shell, but once you start using applications like Alpine
for mail and text web browsers, VO HAS some pretty awkward tracking issues.
Brtty is specifically designed to work with a terminal and does a wonerful job

Cheryl,
Thanks for revisiting this. I think your original post was in 2006: much has

look into. Once your start the screen, they mention

are contained in the brltty source which you must download using subversion. I
will really try to update the instructions I wrote several years ago and post
them in the next few days.

Hello,
I’m looking at building brltty on the mac. The first problem is compiling a
version of screen with shared memory. I don’t think the version which comes
with the os in /usr/bin supports shared memory . I installed the version of
screen from macports, but don’t think the result is any be
