Hi all,
Contact Len Burns [log in to unmask]
He is your man for this kind of info. I hope that's the right
address! I am working with a secondary computer and it is driving

He is unable to read from left to right, even if it's on a computer screen with a masking feature. What they've found is that he can read if it's a single line of words on a strip of paper, like ticker tape. I don't know yet if a single-line sized viewing screen would also work.
