We have developed the world's first two-way Nemeth braille translator. With it, MegaDots' sophistication lets you produce math braille quickly and easily. Entry shortcuts or menu items you select instantly transform into math notation. When you translate, they turn into perfect Nemeth braille. You can back translate into the original notation, too and make changes in inkprint or braille.
Several overlapping entry methods let you choose how you want to work. You can use the menus, but there are many shortcuts for entering math symbols. There is also an automated shortcut list called Fastmath. You can add your own shortcuts to this list to further automate math entry.
Our Nemeth add-on uses MegaDots' automatic translation to produce any math from simple arithmatic problems to advanced calculus. You can easily enter simple, complex or hypercomplex fractions, geometry symbols and shapes, algebra, integrals, even if you don't know Nemeth code.
Here is a sample of how the software will work. If I
need to write "the fraction of x squared plus y squared all over the sum
alpha minus beta", I enter as follows: [x^2+y^2//Alt-G a - Alt-G
b] The [xxx//xxx] work as data entry shortcuts for
fractions. The the caret is a shortcut for a superscript. I use the Alt-G
to get my menu of Greek letters. After I type this expression, I press F5
for braille translation. I get ?x^2"+y^2"/.a-.b# in my
braille, which is correct Nemeth code.
