What started out as a braille editor has turned into a computer-braille tool similar to liblouis.

A tiny braille editor designed for braille-first. The use of orca+brltty means that you don't have full animation control over dots. I want:

• modal cursors, so you can be in a vim-like session and distinguish between modes
• flashing marked carriage return marker
• do not clobber current output with current input, as ed does

Get dependencies:

go mod vendor
go mod tidy

Run Orca, and brltty. I turn off speech for Orca. In different windows:

brltty

orca --disable=speech --replace

Especially run this in its own window, as you may need to run reset to clean up ANSI escape sequences:

go run cmd/teeny/main.go

ESC q to get out

And if you have a bluetooth or USB capable terminal, you will have to do an actual bluetooth bind for your device before starting these.

This is a simple and modal editor:

• ESC to toggle between command and overwrite mode
• q to quit in command mode
• arrow keys to move in the buffer
