BRLTTY TODO - March 30, 2000
============================
(This concerns the main module of BRLTTY. Individual Braille terminal
drivers may have their own TODO lists.)
Your help is welcome.
- Defining smaller regions of the screen to be concentrated on. Cursor
movement outside the current region would be ignored. This would be
useful if the screen was split into multiple `windows' (e.g. in ytalk).
- Attribute tracking (scroll bars, etc.)
- Revision of beeps. Too many events have the same beeps, so we might want
to add new ones. See if we could optimize the use of the console resource.
Implement .au and .wav sounds (through a soundcard).
- Better speech support.
- Support for more Braille displays.
- Port to other Unix platforms. Since all Linux dependent functions are now
modularized in separate source files, it would be easy to write other
modules to make BRLTTY usable with the screen package or such and then
become available for any other Unix platform. An experimental patch is
available in the Patches/ directory.
