Re: [orca-list] Word wrap of contracted braille

["John J. Boyer" <john boyer abilitiessoft com>]

To avoid splitting words one should give a value of outlen in the call 
to liblouis that is the same as the number of cells in the braille 
display. liblouis will put as many whole words in the out put as 
possible. If only part of a word would fit at the end of the display the 
whole word is kept for the next braille window. Of course, the value of 
inbuf must be advanced accordingly.
