Gord's absolutely right, but I've got to say that it's still pretty
impressive. 


Best wishes.

Hello:
That is what sharpeye, which is included in the goodfeel bundle that Dancing
Dots sells, does.  Of course, the accuracy of the scan will depend on many
factors, such as the complexity of the music, the print quality, and even in
the best cases, we do not claim that a totally blind person can
independently scan their music and get satisfactory results.  When used as
part of the goodfeel package, sharpeye is meant for sighted teachers,
musical directors, etc. to use and then make the necessary corrections so
that an accurate braille  score will be produced.

        Hello all, I'm curious about how sheet music is actually written.  I
know that Braille music is a totally different animal from Braille
literature and I'm wondering if their's some program that would enable some
one to scan some printed music and then have jaws read it back in some form
or another.  I hope I'm clear enough in what I'm asking.  Thanks
