Hi S`ebastian,

are you working with tiger as a developper?  Also, How do you get the second 
character of your first name to appear on screen?

Thanks!

AFAIK Voice Over (the screen reader in Tiger) will not support Braille
displays for the moment.

However I got Libbraille to work on Mac OS X and added a Preference Pane
for Braille; you can download an installer there:
http://libbraille.org/download.php

There is only a test application which detects the Braille display and
displays a few things for the moment, but if you have a braille display
I am interested on feedback.

MozBraille should also work with Braille displays on MacOS X but you
have to compile it yourself at the moment:
http://mozbraille.mozdev.org/
I am currently working on an XPI installer for MozBraille to make it
easier to install and I will make it work on MacOSX also.
