Greetings everyone on the list,
   I am having some math trouble. I am attending college at the University 
of Colorado at Boulder, and I am taking a math class this semester. I have 
been looking at some nemeth math translation software and have been trying a 
software called Nemetex. Does anyone here use any math translation software 
that works with the BrailleNote? If so, can you please tell me where I can 
get it?
   The Nemetex software is a pretty good software, but I still haven't 
figured out how to use it. Does anyone on this list know how to use it, or 
any other software that may work with the BrailleNote?
   In middle and high school I did all my math on the Perkins Braille Writer 
and my Teacher translated the Braille into print math. Since there is nobody 
to do the translation now, I am looking for some other ways of producing 
work that my teacher can read.
   If you have any suggestions, please let me know.
   Thank you very much.
   Nijat
