I honestly don’t know how useful this particular add-on might prove for
people but I wanted to pass it along. An add-on that just got released
today allows you to type in Braille using your standard computer
keyboard. The S, D and F keys are used for dots 3, 2 and 1 where J, K
and L are used for dots 4, 5 and 6. This add-on is listed as being
under development so it may not be ready for prime-time. It also may
not be as enjoyable to use as you might like as NVDA doesn’t yet support
input of Grade 2 Braille. I predict this will be added in a future
release and so the add-on has a lot of potential. The URL to get it is
