[Blindmath] Nemeth on braillesense

Louis Bryant louis at braillesoft.net
Mon Oct 14 17:12:14 UTC 2013


Hi. I develop software for the Braille Sense. The only place that accepts Nemeth input and output is in their calculator starting with version 7.0. From the calculator, you can toggle between Computer Braille and Nemeth by using SPACE-G. A solution I'm sure is being developed to allow it in other places. Best, Louis
