es:punctlist is there, but I am not sure how to use it. It doesn't seem to work
without quotes, but also not with quotes, either.

I think just one which cycles through all available commands is fine.

This works for me, thanks. It would be very handy if BRLTTY would support
selecting configurations using keys. This would allow me to not restart BRLTTY
each time I want to listen a text in a different language. Would that be
possible?

Thank you
