Thanks for the explanation.I found out my issue which was that \ does not give dots 1256 for back translation, but rather dots 12567.
So test backtranslation of dots 1256 with lou_translate, I need to type | or the vertical bar.
I mistakenly thought that the 6 dot encoding for back translation would be Braille ASCII, but it seems it is almost that, with en-us-comp6 used for the punctuation.
Anyway, back on the track. Thanks, Harri On 26/01/2015 12:34, Bert Frees wrote:
Hi Harri, The forward translation is not correct. Note the two apostrophes, they indicate that the backward slash was not defined in the translation table. During backtranslation, the following rule from text_nabcc.dis, which is the default display table of fr-fr-g1.utb, is used: display \X005C 12567 #92\reverse solidus HTH, Bert Christian Egli writes:On 01/26/2015 10:02 AM, Harri Pasanen wrote:I compiled 2.6.1 and tried lou_trace. Unfortunately it did not help. In fact, lou_trace gives me the output I expected, but sheds no light on the lou_translate problem. What I tried: harri@touho ~/src/liblouis-2.6.1 $ /home/harri/test/bin/lou_trace fr-fr-g1.utb \\ '\' 1. \ ^C harri@touho ~/src/liblouis-2.6.1 $ /home/harri/test/bin/lou_translate -b fr-fr-g1.utb \\ \12567/ ^C I thinks backslash should correspond to dots 1256 in backtranslation, should it not?It looks like lou_trace only supports forward translation and I realize now that you are pondering a problem with backtranslation. Would have to ask Bert if lou_trace could be extended to backtranslation.
