We could always return the USB ID for the largest size <= the actual display size. The length of the bytes written to the display could then be appropriately padded so that as much of the display as possible is used. >Just the same: remember that the guest is not necessarily brltty, but >could be any screen reader, so the key meanings must be generic enough. >In the case of brltty, to get full support we could just use the brlapi >protocol instead. The problem with keys is that each type of display tends to have a fundamentally different layout so it may not be possible to map one display's keys nicely to those of another. -- Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | I believe that the Bible is the Phone: 1-613-726-0014 | Ottawa, Ontario | Word of God.
