Hi all,
I just had an email from a blind woman who is starting out learning the I Ching. I can send her plenty of information in text format, and refer her to nice people's free digitally-available translations http://www.onlineclarity.co.uk/I_Ching_community/clipart/happy.gif, but I am puzzling over how a beginner looks up a hexagram without being able to see a trigram-related reference chart. Probably it would be possible to make one that was screen-reader friendly. But if there is a translation available in Braille, or if someone out there who has experience with screen readers has already solved this problem, I would love to know.
