One of HumanWare's engineers finally made an appearance of HumanWare's mailing list, stating for the record what we had hitherto only suspected: that they buggered up with the latest KeySoft release, breaking protocol compatibility for QT users, and that a patch would introduce a toggle for either the old or new protocol. The old protocol would be compatible with brltty; the new, until we have documentation, would not. The old protocol uses home-row input; the new does not, doing QT (QWERTY) pass-through.
For various reasons, I'm exchanging (for a fee, naturally) my QT for a BT keyboard. I feel the QT model to have been, shall we say, less well gifted than the BT, culminating in a breakdown that rendered my unit mostly unusable. However, it would probably benefit brltty hugely to have this QT input support, and if ever I get my hands on the protocol specification, I'll be sure to share. Cheers, Sabahattin _______________________________________________ This message was sent via the BRLTTY mailing list.
