Yes, there might be something wrong with the code that looks for the user
files, configurations, semantic action files, and tables. It doesn't seem to be
working quite right.

Keith,
My guess is that it is using the preferences.cfg that is in the BB tree
structure, not the one that I have modified with different settings in my
personal appdata folder. It always used that configuration file before.
Probably it just needs to be changed so it will look for user changes to the
preferences.cfg file.
Best regards from Ohio,
Vic

Vic.
I don't know either. We have not made changes to the command-line interface.
It is probably doing whatever the previous design used. I've been meaning to
make this a priority, that is making sure the the same parameters are used for
output as are used for editing. It isn't very helpful to let people review and
edit the braille if it ends up printing differently.
Someone needs to spend some time on this. I was under the impression that
others were working on this besides us (APH) and John but right now we seem to
be doing it. I'm not sure we can do it all.

Keith,
Embossing with the emboss subcommand does work with the latest build of BB.
I am sending it to a text-only embosser set up as a Generic / Text Only
printer. However, the Braille output didn't look like the Braille output when
using either the NIMAS.cfg or preferences.cfg files. I don't know what settings
it was using.
Best regards from Ohio,
Vic
