Fork Note

This is a modifed version of the original script taken from: https://github.com/its-sarin/BrailleCodec. The change is that it's adjusted to work with Croatian Braille instead of English.

BrailleCodec

A small python script to encode plain text to Braille or decode Braille to plain text

Usage

To encode a plain text string:

$ python braille_codec.py -e myname
$ ⠍⠽⠝⠁⠍⠑

To decode a Braille string:

$ python braille_codec.py -d ⠍⠽⠝⠁⠍⠑
$ myname

What is the point of this?

Honestly Braille characters just look cool and have a sort of "cyberpunk" style to them when displayed on a screen. This otherwise serves no real world purpose for the blind.
