The BRLTTY page talks about providing access to the Linux/Unix console:
BRLTTY is a background process (daemon) which provides access to the
Linux/Unix console (when in text mode) for a blind person using a
refreshable braille display. It drives the braille display, and
provides complete screen review functionality. Some speech capability
has also been incorporated.

The Linux console is a rather specialized "terminal" (tty) that can emit
log messages, accept administrative commands, etc. I hope that this is
not the only terminal that BRLTTY can access.
Specifically, I would hope that BRLTTY can be used to display arbitrary
content from a specified terminal session, Emacpeak buffer, etc. Is this
the case? If not, would it be hard to set up?
Comments and suggestions welome... (ducks)
