Subject: Braifo - a braille formatter


Hi,

This is a short notice about a new project I started in April.

Braifo is a braille formatter, that will generate braille out of an
SGML/XML document. Currently it supports DSSSL using (OPEN)Jade. I am
planning to also support XSL in the future, when the XSL spec gets more
ready.

Braifo uses standard flow objects, whose semantics are slightly modified
to better support braille.

If anyone is interrested in this project (yes, I know that many of you
don't read your books in braille:-), the URL is
<http://user.tninet.se/~kir426p/braifo/>. Among other things at this site,
there is a prorotype implementation, which doesn't do very much yet...

There is also a mailing list for discussions relating to Braifo (Linux and
braille in general), called linux-braille. See the above URL for
subscription information.

Please note that Braifo is free software (open source) and will always be.
Also note that the goal is that the program is portable to other platforms
than Linux, even if Linux is the development environment.

(Dieder Martin: I really appreciate your work on the new DSSSL site!!! Do
you please add a link to Braifo?)

Regards,
/Peter Nilsson
