Rick,

BrailleBlaster will work with as many embossers as we can get drivers 
for. Of course, most embossers will produce plain, properly formated 
braille if just sent text with the proper number of cells per line, 
lines per page, and forms-feeds. So the generic embosser driver willo be 
the first to be implemented. BrailleBlaster will also produce files for 
reading on Braille displays. I think interfaces are mostly an OS matter. 
If we have to do anything, we'll take care of it when we reach that 
stage of development.

John
