now that sounds like something that People would love. Being able to translate a selection say a page by simply going to the the context menu. Hmm, can that be done with a file? Example, going to the documents folder, pressing vokeys-shift-m and finding in that context menu the braille translater and clicking on it? Perhaps if you expanded that to other codes a small simpl dialog would come up asking questions or offering radio buttons or a list of possibllities.

I have this working on my Mac and want to know if anyone would find it useful or not. Braille contextual menu lets you select text in any Cocoa based application and translate that text into US grade two braille. In fact it could be made to do it into any number of other braille codes but that's for another day. The braille is then placed on the clipboard ready for useHere is an example. ,"h is an example4As of right now I'm using liblouis to do the translation as I have no idea what will end up in the next OS for braille support.Anyone interested in this? Should I bundle up all the bits and release it? Should I wait until the OS has the braille translators and then do it?GregClick on the link below to go to our homepage. http://www.icanworkthisthing.comManage your subscription by using the web interface on the link below.//www.freelists.org/list/macvoiceoverUsers can subscribe to this list by sending email to macvoiceover- request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with 'subscribe' in the Subject field OR by logging into the Webinterface at //www.freelists.org/list/macvoiceover
