Steve,
Thanks. For anyone else who mayh be reading this thread, BrailleBlaster
could use some experienced Java programmers. We are using SWT to create
the interface, because it is accessible out of the box on multiple
platforms.
Experienced C programmers would also be welcome to help with some of the
modules in liblouisutdml which is the braille translation engine for
BrailleBlaster. These modules are currently only stubs. They are
transcribe_chemistry, transcribe_music and transcribe_graphics.
Thanks,
John

NFBTRANS is written in C. It is my understanding that besides changing
compiler options, one needs to look at all of the pointer definitions as they
don't
always translate from 16-bit to 32-bit.
Since John Boyer is also on this list, I would like to make it clear that I
would not want to take resources or time away from John Boyer's Braille Blaster
project which is in the process of creating a much more modern and flexible
open source braille translation solution.
Best regards,
Steve Jacobson

Subject: Re: EdSharp and brf files on win64
We don't have a 32-bit version of NFBTRANS which is a free translator and
backtranslator. At first, we heard that it
would be simple to recompile it, but there is more to it than that.
Best regards,

Hi all,
I just tried opening a brf file with edSharp, the first time I have
tried that in quite a while. Here is the dialog that popped up.
Obviously, this is on win64.
Unsupported 16-Bit Application
The program or feature
"\??\C:\PROGRA~2\EdSharp\Convert\NFBTrans\NFBTRANS.EXE" cannot
start or run due to incompatibity with 64-bit versions of Windows. Please
contact the software vendor to ask if a 64-bit Windows compatible version
is
available.
OK
