Yes definitely put ViewPlus down as a liblouis user. The first one. We use
liblouis in our TSS braille translator/formattor application, the Tiger
Designer, and (soon) IVEO.

Replying to my own message! I wonder if ViewPlus would like to be mentioned
on the liblouis page. They are using both liblouis and liblouisxml in their
TSS software, which is a commercial assistive technology application. In
fact, they have provided resources to me which have made the development of
the libraries possible.
Waiting to hear from John Gardner.
