I suppose you could also try manually translating a string in Python

to confirm that it works there.

I tried to do it, but I can't. maybe I just don't know python well.
can you, or someone else give me the code?

import louis

tables=["unicode.dis", "en-us-g2.ctb"]

louis.translateString(tables, "This is a test.")

Substitute your preferred translation table for en-us-g2.ctb (they're in /usr/share/liblouis/tables), and you'll need to be in uncontracted mode to check the output, which is in Unicode braille (0x2800-0x28ff).

I don't know whether you need any additional table files other than the main table in order to get correct Cyrillic translation. The input string should be UTF-8.

    thanks. ok. if i do this and use ru.ctb as second table, i get this:
    '⢁⢇⢑⢭⡜⢁⢇⢑⢭⠤⢏⢉⠀⠻⠀⡨⠀'
    this is similar to the orca output. but as far as I know this isn't
    correct.
    1. nvda in windows uses this table and outputs completely different
    results.
    2. my brltty configured to use this contraction table and if I
    switch to tty
    and tell brltty to use contracted braille my prompt looks different.
    
    something realy wrong hear.
