Hello,

Thanks for your help.

When I have done this, it seems, that BRLTTY works correctly, but,
when I try to set NVDA to use BRLTTY as braille display, Windows
reports, that BRLTTY has creshed and windows is searching for
solutions.

Is there potential conflict between BRLTTY and NVDA?

p.s. brltty log is steal
