Do you mean that you are getting the byte UTF-8 representation of
characters instead of characters themselves? (I.e. you are getting "é"
instead of "é" ?)

It looks like orca doesn't care about charsets. If it always gets UTF-8
text, brl_module_writeText() should rather do

        if (brl_initialized) {
                brlapi_writeStruct ws = BRLAPI_WRITESTRUCT_INITIALIZER;
                ws.text = str;
                ws.charset = "UTF-8";
                ws.cursor = cursor;
                brlapi_write(&ws);
        }

BTW, orca doesn't check the result of brlapi_*() function. It should, and
call brlapi_perror() on errors.

Regards,
Samuel
