Hi Dave:
I'm trying /branches/brltty-4.1 out now on OpenSolaris with Orca. I've
been running it for an hour. So far it looks pretty good.
One thing I noticed, however, is that running brltty with a bad option
seems to cause a daemon to start. I would have expected it to exit.
Below, I run brltty with a "--floozle" option. You'll notice that
brltty complains, but the "brltty --floozle" process ends up running:
wwalker at opensolaris:~/work/brltty-4.1$ brltty --floozle
brltty: unknown option: -
BRLTTY 4.0 rev 4859M [http://mielke.cc/brltty/]
wwalker at opensolaris:~/work/brltty-4.1$ ptree | grep brltty
28713 brltty -d usb:,serial:/dev/term/0 -bbm -xno -p none -A
auth=none -n
28758 grep brltty
28754 brltty --floozle
I'm not sure if brltty has always behaved this way or not, but I thought
I'd point it out. It's certainly not a show stopper.
BTW, I'm also assuming you'll end up changing the BrlTTY and BrlAPI
version numbers in the official release. :-)
Many thanks,
Will
