OK, I'll change the op code. It does work but it isn't helping anyone else if 
it's in my user profile directory, which is where it is.

Keith,

If you add new characters to the end of chardefs.cti it will work. It might be 
better to use the punctuation opcode, as I suggested in my previous message, 
because if the bullet character is right up against a word or number without a 
space the latter may not be translated correctly if the sign opcode is used. 
The small table that I suggested in my previous message will also work. When 
you change a table for BrailleBlaster it should go in 
userProgramData/liblouis/tables . 
BrailleBlaster should be looking in this folder first for tables.

John
