Hello Mario,
This is Humberto writing back regarding your Braille Music compiler web 
project. I want to use BRF as the table when entering Braille music, but I 
get errors no matter what I try. I tried several steps such as: copying and 
pasting from a Braille writer program (duxbury) so that the Braille 
characters come out in standard computer braille, which I assume the site 
accepts. then, after I paste and click the "Transcribe to print" button, I 
get an error message "Unable to translate Braille music, try again."
Even when I tried to type the associated computer braille dot combinations 
for if I was writing in braille, I still get the same message.
I also tried writing the Braille music from my Braille Note, then saving to 
a BRF file, and pasting the contents of the BRF file onto the site with my 
computer, and still get the same message.
I'll try to see if you can get this music to work using this link: 
http://bmc.delysid.org/?table=brf&music=.%3E%22p%22]%22\+%22\%22]%22%24%22%3A+%22%3F%22%3F%22%3A%22%24+%22%24%22%3A%22o.%3E%22p%22]%22\+%22\%22]%22%24%22%3A+%22%3F%22%3F%22%3A%22%24+%22%24%22%3A%22o+%22p%22]%22\+%22\%22]%22%24%22%3A+%22%3F%22%3F%22%3A%22%24+%22%3A%22%3F%22n%3Ck%0D%0A+%22p%22]%22\+%22\%22]%22%24%22%3A+%22%3F%22%3F%22%3A%22%24+%22%3A%22%3F%22n%3Ck%0D%0A

Can you explain what's going on?
is there anything that I need to do before typing and / or pasting the music 
into the edit field?
you can write me off list for your convenience. My direct email address is:

Thanks and happy thanksgiving.
Humberto
