Hi George

it's a long time since I really used braille and learnt
anything new about 
it. As I only use braille for labelling and keeping notes
(my fingers are 
not sensitive enough to read it fluently), it's not
surprising I'm out of 
touch. I'll have to try and find out more. Is there anywhere
I can get a 
list of the code? Being in France the RNIB charges a fortune
for braille 
books so if I can get it off a website it'll be easier.

Regards

Adrien

Unified English Braille (UEB).

In very simplified terms, it is a move towards a standard
common English language braille, and makes a lot of common
sense.

Although perhaps subtle, there are differences between
English and American braille for example.

UEB has been adopted by Canada, Africa and many other
English using countries.

Needless to say America and The United Kingdom have yet to
settle their differences.

Or as someone once said, "Two countries separated by a
common language"

George.
