[BRLTTY] Contracted English Braille error and patch: Short

[Lee Maschmeyer]

Hi folks,

It turns out that "short" followed by anything beginning with "h", such as 
shorthaired or shorthorn, uses the th sign. This is an error. As far as I 
can see from my wordlist, h is the only letter that needs protection, so I 
wrote the suggested rule to apply to the word "short" instead of "shorth". 
The patch is attached.

By the way, a friend claims that what used to be called Contracted English 
Braille is now supposed to be called EBAE Braille, to be contrasted with UEB 
Braille. The book of rules is called English Braille American Edition, EBAE, 
but is the braille code itself now called EBAE?

Thanks,
