[BRLTTY] Any more info on installing brltty on Mac Monterey?

[Cheryl Homiak]

I’m sure I still have it. But I can’t even get brltty to compile successfully. Don’t have time to write more right now.

I have another much newer iMac and a laptop running Monterey but last time I tried to install brltty I had no success. If anybody has done this and can give me a step-by-step on this, I would be so grateful! The old Mac, even if it gets fixed this time, isn’t going to run forever. Btw I do have both laptop and newer iMac running in the bash shell in case that makes a difference. Any help would be so much appreciated! I can of course use the Mac without brltty but for some things I still much prefer the terminal and brltty to Apple braille. If I can’t figure out,, my wonderful brltty days are almost over!
