[BRLTTY] Braille tables versus contraction tables.

[Lee Maschmeyer]

Hi Hermann,

I think we're saying the same thing. I don't mind word wrap (splitting) 
being made available in computer braille; I think it would be a nice 
enhancement. What I'm concerned about is having to constantly turn it on and 
off every time I switch braille tables. If I can set it for, "word wrap off 
for computer braille, on for grade 2", that's fine.

WRT Jaws, they have so much flexibility nobody can test it, let alone use 
it. Word wrap off in grade 2 does not work. Not in version 9 anyway. It 
works for the first two braille strings but after that you get word wrap all 
the time. This means that everybody who uses grade 2 has word wrap on (or at 
the very least has lines short enough not to show the error). There is such 
a thing as making so many options available the usage becomes daunting. Even 
configuration can be this way. Whether we're anywhere near that stage I 
don't know, but if we once make something available we'll have to support it 
from then on.
