Hello Victor, Did you patch and build the screen program? On the Mac, bratty needs to run under screen using the sc driver. I run screen and brltty under my user account (no sudo). HTH Chris > On Oct 31, 2015, at 10:41 PM, Victor Tsaran wrote: > > Cheryl. > Thanks so so much for your helpful

Actually, on the Mac the screen driver comes up by default so that designation isn't necessary. Hmmm, if this is a screen problem, perhaps I should check to see if it is specific to screen-4.2.1 or if the same happens using screen-4.0.1. Perhaps it has something to do with the screen patch with

First of all, are you using screen-4.2.1 or screen-4.0.1 or some other version? Secondly, did you patch your source of screen before configuring and compiling it but after installing brltty? I have recently worked with installing both screen-4.0.1 and 4.2.1 on El Capitan and nothing has stopped
