    Summary: Braille display driver for Linux/Unix
    Description: 
    BRLTTY is a background process (daemon) which provides
    access to the Linux/Unix console (when in text mode)
    for a blind person using a refreshable braille display.
    It drives the braille display and provides complete
    screen review functionality.
    
    BRLTTY can also work with speech synthesizers; if you want to use it with
    Speech Dispatcher, please install also package brltty-speech-dispatcher.
