The most widely used in the ibm world is Duxbury Braille Translation Program from Duxbury Systems in Littleton, Massachusetts. I don't have their address and phone number but you can get it from information. I think the area code is 508, if not, try 617. There is also a good program called turbobraille, available from Kansys Inc. Write a message here to David Andrews if you want more information about it. Hope that helps. marda -- Uucp: ..!{decvax,oliveb}!bunker!hcap!hnews!393!9!Marda.Anderson Internet: Marda.Anderson@f9.n393.z1.fidonet.org
