# This is a description of the default text translation table used by BRLTTY.
24
# It's based on the North American Braille Computer Code, but defines the full
25
# Latin1 (ISO-8859-1) character set.
27
# The 95 printable characters of the standard 7-bit US-ASCII character set
28
# (32-126) are identical to their representations within the North American
29
# Braille Computer Code (these are the only characters which the NABCC actually
30
# defines). Characters from literary braille, symbols from The Nemeth Braille
31
# Code for Mathematics and Science Notation, and a bit of human imagination
32
# have all been combined to create an easy-to-remember, one-to-one mapping
33
# between each character and its braille counterpart. All possible combinations
34
# involving only the original 6 braille dots are used, but that only allows for
35
# 64 out of the required 95 character representations. The presence or absence
36
# of dot 7 is used to differentiate between pairs of characters which either
37
# are very closely related in meaning or, in a few cases where a more intuitive
38
# reason couldn't be found, have a very close logical relationship within the
39
# US-ASCII code. Dot 8 isn't used at all.

# The space and the 26 lowercase letters (a-z) are the same as in literary
