[BRLTTY] braille input with retainDots=1 not working

[Samuel Thibault]

Hello,

Thanks for all the details, it's much clearer what is happening and
where the problem exactly was.  As Dave said, it's the driver itself
that reinterprets your dots, that's why only some dot patterns were
sorta working.

These are actually commands.  I'm now realizing that you apparently
missed the brlapi_keyCode_t part of the documentation, which explains
commands, dot patterns, etc. Dots are of course not coded the way you
cited above :)
