And don't forget the braille drivers in brltty. I used them as a base for
brass and I am thinking to change brass to use them again. I did the code
fork because at the time I did it they were not loadable at run time,
something I wanted to have. But know they are. With minor changes, they
should be useable as a common base. They support a lot of different
braille devices.
