Hi All,

I remember some recent postings about getting a braillelite to work with
brltty, but I'm not sure what model was being discussed.  I've just tried to
use my new BL M20 with brltty, and it only partially works.  Has any work been
done to get the braillelite driver to work with the M20?  What would I need to
do to convert it if it hasn't already been done?

Also when setting up the serial parameters for the BL, I presumably need to
change from the default half duplex to full.  What about handshaking?  I was
impressed to see that the cursor routing buttons on the BL do actually route
the system cursor.  This made me wonder whether its actually possible to use
the BL for input as well as output.  This wasn't clear from the documentation
I've found so far.

Any help gratefully received.
