Re: [orca-list] Is it really no solution for Chinese braille?

Hi:

Samuel would probably be the best one to help us here.  I see he
recommends looking at liblouis or gnome-braille.  We're definitely going
to look at the notion of using one of these (or something like them) for
GNOME 2.22.  The benefits will be many, including the ability to handle
contracted braille.
