Summary: Braille display driver for Linux/Unix.
%description
BRLTTY is a background process (daemon) which provides access to
the console screen (when in text mode) for a blind person using a
refreshable braille display. It drives the braille display, and
provides complete screen review functionality. Some speech capability
has also been incorporated.
Install this package if you use a refreshable braille display.

* Tue Feb 17 2026 Dave Mielke <Dave@Mielke.cc> 6.9
General changes:
Cursor routing no longer spawns an additional process or thread.
Soft cursor detection (for applications that use a visual cursor) has been added
(must be enabled within the Navigation Options submenu).
Multi-line cursor routing has been fixed.
A screen driver can now provide full (RGB) color for each character.
The DESCCHAR command now shows actual color names if RGB is provided.
Time selectors within the Preferences Menu now adjust by 0.05 (rather than 0.1) seconds.
Timestamps within the Log Messages submenu now contain their milliseconds component.
Command line and configuration file parsing errors are now written to the log file.
Failure to connect to a Bluetooth device no longer spams the log.
Failure to open a HID device no longer spams the log.
New braille navigation commands:
COLOR: Show just the VGA or RGB color of the selected character.
It's been bound to a long press of a routing key.
Use this command, rather than DESCCHAR, if you just want to know the color.
New speech navigation commands:
SPEAK_CURR_PWRD: Say the current partial word.
SPEAK_PREV_PWRD: Move to and say the previous partial word.
SPEAK_NEXT_PWRD: Move to and say the next partial word.
SPELL_CURR_PWRD: Spell the current partial word.
SPELL_CURR_LINE: Spell the current line.
See the laptop and keypad keyboard tables for related binding changes
(more specifically, see the kp_speak and kp_say keyboard subtables).

Navigating by partial words has been restored to the original bindings.
Navigating by full words has been retained with different bindings.
A command to spell the current line has been added.
Spelling a word or line now speaks all of the punctuation symbols.
Autorepeat for navigating by character, word, and line has bee slowed down so it can be heard.

Word Autorepeat Interval: defaults to 0.4 seconds
Line Autorepeat Interval: defaults to 0.6 seconds
