It's certainly a PC-style keyboard with numeric keypad. There are little pins
to show the state of capslock, numlock and scroll-lock. 40 display cells + 4
status cells; vertical and horizontal optical s

Just wondering: do you actually want the virtual terminal to be that
big? You can resize it by running:

Just to make sure: make sure to use a recent enough version of libvte: a
bug was fixed there in versions 0.42.1 and later.

There's also the LNBEG command that goes to the start of the current line. So,
even now, although it's a bit less convenient

Hello
BRLTTY nowadays displays colour names incorrectly with the Describe Character
command. This has been the case for a long time, I just haven't reported it.
This is probably due to some changes in Linux's console infrastructure, and
may have been introduced with frame buffers. It may be that c

I use BRLTTY on a virtual terminal which is very wide (200 characters). There

What is udev-activation, actually? I googled a bit but couldn't find
anything about it. Is there documentation somewhere?
