Weekend goal: a chunk (script) to help sighted users review . It's a great way to understand how visually impaired users interact with a computer using a screen reader and a Braille display. The script is simple and easy to configure. Currently, it offers a learning mode; in the future, a challenge mode will be added, along with a blog post explaining how to set it up.

On it should be executable via flua:
% flua learnbraille.lua

after installing liblouis:
# pkg install liblouis

[edit] % /usr/libexec/flua learnbraille.lua

Terminal screenshot of a Lua script called learnbraille.lua running on FreeBSD. The script is titled "LearnBraille 0.0.1" and uses a Braille conversion table. It quizzes the user with Braille character patterns and expects input of the corresponding character. The session shows a sequence of questions with user responses and feedback indicating whether the answer was correct or not. The script is launched using the command lua54 learnbraille.lua.
