[BRLTTY] A strange Unicode translation

[Lee Maschmeyer]

Hi all,

I have a book that contains the word "protege". The two e's are
accented. It's a lynx dump of an xml file, and in the lynx output
these e's show up as dots 1268 (hex E9). When I turn grade 2 on with
the built-in brltty translator they come out properly as dots
4-15. But when I translate it into grade 2 using the command:

brltty-ctb -rw40 -tbrf

each e comes out as the eight-character sequence:

comma
comma
grave
a
7
comma
c
7

That is:

,,`a7,c7

I think the problem lies in Tables/brf.ttb but since this file makes
no provision for a one -> two character translation I don't think this
can be fixed with this table. Attached is a file containing "protege"
in both untranslated and translated format.

Does this demonstrate the problem clearly enough and is a fix feasible
within present resources?

Thanks,
