I use emacs, which of course saves your place.  I do have to hit
something when I get to the bottom of the page -- I wish the cursor
would follow the brltty window, but other than that, it works well.  I
am using a Humanware Brailliant 40 cell.

Your life is like a penny.  You're going to lose it.  The question is:
How do
