Hi Martin, cc questions@
Might you be prepared to write a page for the FreeBSD handbook ?
http://www.freebsd.org/doc/en_US.ISO8859-1/books/handbook/index.html
It could go under "V. Appendices" ?
Having someone who is blind as author of such a page would make it
more authoritative & useful for other blind people I assume.
I guess you could start by correlate previous posting on this thread,
+ add your knowledge, keeping text short & linking to tools &
equipment manufacturers ? (& inc. a URL to the Knoppix blind version)
There's been a few people who have asked me over the years, & I've
never really known where to point them.
PS A near blind person in Germany told me a decade or more back:
- each country has a different Braille !?
- one line display systems in Germany are extremely expensive.
Cheers,
Julian
