Hi, sure.

There's a couple options. At least on my Linux box Gradle works as expected:
Clone the code (`git clone https://github.com/jukkae/BrailleZephyr.git`), cd to
BrailleZephyr and run `gradle run`. This, of course, requires a working
installation of Gradle. This should also work on other platforms as well. On
the other hand, as I'm developing mainly in Eclipse, it's also possible to
clone the code, create a new Eclipse project from the files (File -> New -> New
Java Project and then set the project name to BrailleZephyr and set location to
the cloned code folder) and run directly from Eclipse as Java application. I
suppose it's also possible to compile and package as executable jar manually,
but I haven't tried it. Hope this helps, ask for more details if necessary.

Best regards,

thanks

Hi everybody,

I just pulled Michael's code - great work thus far!

I have a feature suggestion that I actually have already started
implementing: A side-by-side view of the document with both Braille and Ascii
views. A side-by-side view, with both sides editable - Braille with
six-key-input and Ascii with regular character input - would be very useful
for our production. We're currently still stuck with one particular DOS
program written sometime during the early nineties, and understandably we'd
like to move on to something more modern. With a side-by-side-view (that can
of course be made optional), I believe BrailleZephyr would eventually fulfill
our needs.

As I said, I already started working on this - what I currently have is
available on https://github.com/jukkae/BrailleZephyr but this is, of course,
very much work in progress. In case you have nothing against this, there will
probably be a pull request coming up sometime soon.

Keep up the good work! I'm really excited about this.

Best regards,
Jukka

Hi Michael,

Good work. I pulled your changes into my local repository. However, i don't
think I received an email notice that they were available.

I have pushed up to BrailleZephyr a very bare bones BRF editor. Attached is
the build for Windows64. I do have 32/64 bit versions for Windows, Mac, and
Linux. Because I am using Linux now, I have no idea if the Windows or Mac
even work.

Because there is no documentation yet. The idea is that BrailleZephyr can
load/save BRF documents or BrailleZephyr(*.bzy) documents. You can
designate a line to be a paragraph ending line by hitting shift-enter
anywhere on that line. The paragraph endings can be saved as a *.bzy
document. It can also rewrap text from the cursor to a paragraph end.

I will be happy to write the documentation for this once we are to that
point.
