No, probably not. BRLTTY doesn't speak by default. There are commands to ask it
to say things, and you can go into the preferences menu to turn on the
autospeak setting. Let me know if you need ehlp to figure out the bindings. You
can use TL1+TL2+TR2 to get to the help screen, and you can use TL1+TL3+TR1 to
get to the rpeferences menu.

No. I think people who give that kind of an answer are extremely rude, and
won't appreciate it if anyone ever does that on this list.
