What are Duxbury and Perky Duck? What do they do? Do they run on Mac OS? If not, is there any equivalent software that does run on Mac OS?
Details: I'm in the process of learning Braille through a Hadley course. I'm also a retired computer programmer. In correspondence with the Braille course instructor, I mentioned I was going to write a piece of software that translated between Braille and text. Me and my big mouth, right? Now, the instructor has mentioned to me that many of Hadley's students would like something like Duxbury or Perky Duck on their Mac, and maybe I could write my software to fill that need. So I'm posting here to find out more about what I just got myself into. Or, ideally, maybe someone here will post about some software that does pretty much the same thing?
My instructor specifically mentioned 6-key entry for the Braille codes as a requirement. I would assume that means something like using the num pad 7 4 1 8 5 2 keys for Braille dots 1-6.
Help a Braille newbie out! Thanks! And, in return, if my software ever amounts to anything, I pledge to make it available for free or super-cheap on the app store or downloadable from somewhere public. And I'll blog about it here at AppleVis.com, too. Just don't hold your breath. It could take me a while to put this together.

Caryn,
Should an older Perky Duck be uninstalled before using this?
Thanks,
Shelley Mack

Duxbury Systems: ANNOUNCING NEW PerkyDuck for MAC and PerkyDuck for
Windows!
PerkyDuck is a free simple braille editor.
It is a computer-based emulator for a Perkins Brailler
which is used in distance education to demonstrate your understanding of
braille.
There is one download for Windows, and another download for the Mac.
Here are the improvements in PerkyDuck 12.4 for Windows and PerkyDuck 12.4
for Mac:
By request, the BRF format is once again available as an output format in
PerkyDuck.
PerkyDuck is now able to print simulated braille dots to an ink-print
printer (without requiring resources installed in DBT).
In the Mac version, interaction with VoiceOver is significantly improved.
In the Windoes version, interaction with JAWS is improved as well. For
example, JAWS more reliably recognizes when it is in a braille document.
Internal processing is more efficient.
PerkyDuck supports virtually every embosser model in current use,
including the new Irie embossers.
To find PerkyDuck, go to our web site (link below) and click on All
Products to get to the Products page. Scroll down or navigate to the
PerkyDuck link!
We appreciate your understanding that we provide PerkyDuck without
phone or email support.
