The production of braille simultaneously with print from a Teletype allows blind persons access to computers without sighted assistance. Jobs in which the use of the output from a Teletype is required are thus open to appropriately trained blind persons. The article includes explanations of the uses made of the braille-producing attachment by a mathematician, a systems programmer, a taxpayer service representative, and a newscaster. Modifications in the braille code necessitated by the system are also discussed.
