Hi rick, is it really off topic, if you need the information. when i
was six years old, my mother started to teach me braille by hand.
this was in 1939, when there were braile machines, but we didn't have
one. there was something called a hand frame. imagine a gide with
cells in it. 26, to be precise. in each cell, there was six
depressions. one used a thing called a style to press out the
separate dots. the style passed through the paper, and wen in to the
depression, leaving the dot behind. many years later, the rnib in
britain, sold a pocket frame, which not only had rows of these cells,
but also had two slots, on each side. through these slots one can
pass a narrow tape. the slots puts the tape beneath one of the rows
of cells. there are in fack two sets of slots, for different width of
tape. it is one of the devices that i am using. i have marked some
memory discs, but some of them have nowhere to write, or only a
small space. i like to put a number followed by the capacity of the
memory stick. i should have thought that the foundation for the blind
in america would have had these pocket frames. i am only guessing
what the organisation your side of the water would be called. good luck brian.
