[Icon-tech] finding documentation on developing programs for thebraille plus

[Nick Gawronski]

Hi, it would be nice to have tutorials on this subject perhaps even an audio 
tutorial on the subject if you could do this so users could hear the prompts 
from either the screen reader on the computer or the braille plus when doing 
development tasks.  Just a thought as I myself and I am sure others to like 
to hear audio demos rather then just reading documents.
