[nabs-l] Reading Electronic Braille on a Display

[Mike Freeman]

If she has a braille display, she could use it to read the books.  But
they'd sound like gobldygook if read using her screen-reader without braille
translation software.

I might be wrong, but I think that you need to have Braille translation
software in order to read BRF files on the computer. What screen reader are
you using?
