The help text is constructed from a number of sources, including the tables within Tables/Input/, the tables within Programs/ktb_cmds.c, etc. Brltty calls internal code to construct the help screen, but there's also a command (brltty-ktb) for reading the key tables. Also, you can read them on the web, so there's no actual need to generate them for yourself: Goto to: brltty.com Click on: Documentation Click on: Key Binding Lists >2.

You need to specify the contraction table that you'd like to use, and then, to active it, switch Text Style to 6-dots. -- Dave Mielke | 2213 Fox Crescent | The Bible is the very Word of God.
