ibm puts voice on palm

[Peter Persuric]

OK,  The braille cel as I know it has 6 dots arranged in two columbs of 3 dots
each numbered left side, or columb, top to bottom: 1 2 3 and on the right
side, or collumb, labeled top to bottom: 4 5 6...
One occurance of dot 6 makes the first following letter a capital letter like
this:
"dot 6"n  =  N
two dot sixes infront of a word makes the whole word capitalised like this:
"dot6""dot6"word  =  WORD
  The dot 3 is an ' sign.
  . = dots 2&5&6  ! = dots 2&3&5
   a = dot 1  b = dots 1&2  c = dots 1&4
  d = dots 1&4&5  e = dots 1&5  f = dots 1&2&4
     g = dots 1&2&3&4  h = dots 1&2&4  i = dots 2&4
  j = dots 2&4&5  k = dots 1&3  l = dots 1&2&3
   m = dots 1&3&4  n = dots 1&3&4&5  o = dots 1&3&5
  p = dots 1&2&3&4  q = dots 1&2&3&4&5  r = dots 1&2&3&5
  s = dots 2&3&4  t = dots 2&3&4&5  u = dots 1&3&6
  v = dots 1&2&3&6  w = dots 2&4&5&6  x = dots 1&3&4&6
    y = dots 1&3&4&5&6  z = dots 1&3&5&6
  There are also what are called short forms and contractions, basically this
is sort of like short hand.  There are more dots for other punctuation, ", or
dot 2" is one"=dots2&5&6"
Here is "sion"=two braille cell contraction,first cel of it is a commonly used
modifier in braille that is dots 4&6 the second braille cell for "sion" is the
letter n or "dots1&3&4&5"  These are space saving features of brl for braille.
another gd for good one is lr for letter.
  Well Here is some braille words seperated by slashes:
 / 6 1&2&5 2&5 / 1&3&4&5&6 1&3&5 1&3&6 / 1&2&4&5 1&3&6 1&3&4&5&6 2&3&4 //
end of brl words.
  Good luck!
