--- Comment #5 from Dale Mosby dale@archcape.com 2008-12-06 15:56:09 --- Comment 2 asked if there is a free download. Answer is yes. This is a rather specialized program and I am quite happy to do the testing. I will give a try at the instructions for testing here:
Go to: www.braille2000.com Download an evaluation copy (BRL2000_Setup.exe). Executing this under wine will install. Under the .wine prog files directory you will see a directory named "CASC/BRL2000".
In order to make this program work I had to download the file "winhttp.dll" and install in the .wine/.../system32" directory. On the winhq forum someone suggested that I might have been able to install a dummy file there. I have not tried that.
Use wine to run "BRL2000.EXE".
This brings up an initial window. Choose "Evaluate only", and then "Basic edition".
Now the main braille program window will display.
Select "file maintenance" toward the upper left.
A new window will pop-up. NOTE: the text does not display correctly - columns 2 and 3 seem to have been merged. The string "ttings" on the upper right is supposed to be something like "test settings". Click on the portion "ttings".
A new window will come up. Select "test connection".
That will display "success" or "failed".
Hope that helps. As I said, I'm happy to test. I also might be able to get the code used from the author if that would help.
