Begin3 Title: BRLTTY - Access software for Unix for a blind person using a soft Braille terminal Version: 1.0.2, 17SEP96 Entered-date: 17SEP96 Description: BRLTTY is a daemon which provides access to a Unix console for a blind person using a soft Braille display (see the README file for a full explanation). BRLTTY only works with text-mode applications. We hope that this system will be expanded to support other soft Braille displays, and possibly even other Unix-like platforms.
