Hi John,

The normal convention in Windows would be to put the bbsettings and bbtemp
folders in the %appdata% folder instead of directly in the user's local
folder. In my case this would be c:\users\vic\appdata\roaming. Most
applications would create a folder there with the name of either the
application or the company and put all the files needed for their
application in there. This is not essential and it will work the way it is
but would conform more to what is expected in Windows.


Best regards from Ohio, U.S.A.,

Vic

Hi Vic, 

The bug is probably pretty simple. I'll have a look. Anyway, you can 
always use the translate subcommand. Speaking of that, there is a new 
subcommand, checktable It checks a liblouis table for errors and prints 
error messages if it finds any. The syntax is:

checktable tablename

It needs a bit of work, but produces good results.
