No Louis is not based on TurboBraille, which stopped running on MacOS X 10.4. Louis is based on John Boyer's liblouis libraries. If someone really wants TurboBraille again I could see if I can get it running.

As Greg has already pointed out, there is his program called louis, downloadable at:http://w3.wmcnet.org/braille/louis/ There is also nfbtrans available at: http://w3.wmcnet.org/braille/nfbtrans/There's also turbo braille, though there no longer appears to be a clean copy of it for download anywhere. All of these programs were ported/modified for the mac by Greg, and all work on osx. (turbo braille appears to be the basis for louis, which could be why it's no longer available) Nfbtrans is the one I use myself, both personally and for some braille translation services we perform here, but louis is newer, and likely will become the default translator for osx in the future. But, in any case, you've already got louis, so you'll likely not need nfbtrans or turbo braille anyhow, but if you decide to try them, and you can't find them, drop a line, and I'll send them along.Click on the link below to go to our homepage. http://www.icanworkthisthing.comManage your subscription by using the web interface on the link below.//www.freelists.org/list/macvoiceover Users can subscribe to this list by sending email to macvoiceover-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxxwith 'subscribe' in the Subject field OR by logging into the Webinterface at //www.freelists.org/list/macvoiceover
