This is cool: JODY
Hi All,
I was asked to review a demonstration version of a program that turns
your QWERTY keyboard into a braille keyboard. This is similar to what
you find in many braille translation programs. The difference here is
that this braille keyboard works in all applications.
It lets the user enter text in contracted or uncontracted braille using
a word processor, e-mail, or what ever. Since braille only uses six keys
there is some indication that it may be a faster entry method than print
letters for those who are familiar with the braille code.
Please give it a try and reply to the list, to me, or to the reply
section on their web site. I think you'll find it an interesting
program. You can download the demonstration version at
www.oss-globe.com/sbk <outbind://10/www.oss-globe.com/sbk> .
I, nor AFB, are endorsing this product in any way, but I am simply
providing it as information.
Be sure to select Version 1.3 and read the setup instructions before
installing it on your computer.
Have fun,
Ike
