I can test the Program with a HandyTech "Braille star 40", but I can only
sometimes have the braille display to try things out. The program should
be usable with different Braille displays (at least this would be
preferable).

I have sucessfully tried the Function KeyPressedEvent(), it is called
every time a braille key is pressed, and allows to determine which key.
But the problem is to recognize the point of time when all the braille
keys are released again. Then the keys which have been pressed determine
the pattern, which should be passed to the application. Or is there a
totally different way to do it?


BTW: currently I simulate a braille keyboard using the normal PC keyboard,
but with some keyboards this doesn't work.
