CUPS and Braille Translation

[John J. Boyer]

xml2brl is designed to oprate as a CUPS filter. It accepts an xml or 
text file on stdin, translates it to Grade 2 braille (or whatever other 
braille format you want) and outputs the translation in stdout. To 
download it, go to www.chpi.org/downloads.html
