How would I do that, is this sufficient?

#!/usr/bin/python 
import sys
import nemeth
n=nemeth.nemeth ()

while True:
  input=raw_input()
  sys.stdout.write (n.translate(input)+"\n")
  sys.stdout.flush()

At the moment I just get each Braille cell full with 8 dots, so it's not
working... The output of the script is something like 
\frac{1}{2} input gives 
1/2 output... Is this ok for brltty to handle? 

Thanks for your help,
