to my knowledge, no. i've never seen a multiline display of the kind i was speaking of either, only heard about them, i believe the movie sneakers had one for one of its characters. this was the big clunky unit probably the size of a vcr, with its top having a few buttons for conreol, and lots and lots of pins. *chuckle* any braille display i've encountered since i saw them as a kid always makes me think of the whack-a-mole game for some strange reason.

I always thought the way to make a multiline Braille display was with a fingertip sized "mouse" that would actuate mechanical pins as you roll over a virtual page. You'd want the pins to have a much higher resolution than standard Braille so you could simulate smooth motion.
Does anyone make anything like that yet?

my thoughts on indentation as regards screen readers, bad idea. unless you are using a multiline braille display, then it could work. unfortunately, i don't know of such a beast, though a single line braille display is expensive in itself, a multiline one would be worse, and probably best used by someone that had no ears as well as eyes, and that would make chuck coding rather silly to my way of thinking.

Not at all, no, whatever works for you is fine. Actually part of the whole point of ChucK is that it should be there for you, not for the computer. That said; I would take future usage of the file into account and try to make things clear for people who may read it in the future (maybe you in half a year <smile>). I could imagine that some forms of indentation would be especially good for working with screen-readers, I wonder whether any research has been done there.
Yours, Kas.
