Hello Felix. That's not the worst problem. The German literary braille translation in liblouis is really pretty lousy. ViewPlus has licensed another German translation routine for its software, because we were unable to make liblouis German work well in a reasonable time. German braille would seem to require thousands of exceptions. Sure would be nice if some German braille users would take this on as a project.

Did I just not look in the right place, or is this really not included? If so, are there any plans to include it in future versions?
