Mary, John and every one,

I am using iBraille with an Index Basic-d and it works with SnowLeopard.  It 
only works with Index embossers, but, it works fine for english.

The manual was some help and I have some notes, [they are very crude, they were 
written for me], but, they may be a help to you.
