Could you please remove the following lines from nvdaHelper/liblouis/sconscript?

# Starting from Clang 15, the -Wint-conversion warning diagnostic for implicit int <-> pointer conversions
# now defaults to an error in all C language modes.
# Downgrade this to a warning so we can still build.
env.Append(CCFLAGS='-Wno-error=int-conversion')

This was fixed in liblouis/liblouis#1263 and is therefore no longer necessary.

Questions:

  1. Since the following braille tables were previously not usable from NVDA:
    "da-dk-g26l.ctb", "da-dk-g28l.ctb", "da-dk-g26l-lit.ctb"
    Should we make available the following renamed braille tables?:
    "da-dk-g26l_1993.ctb", "da-dk-g28l_1993.ctb", "da-dk-g26l-lit_1993.ctb"

  2. Instead of this:

    addTable("da-dk-g28_1993.ctb", _("Danish 8 dot grade 2 (1993)"), contracted=True)
    addTable("da-dk-g28.ctb", _("Danish 8 dot grade 2 (2022)"), contracted=True)
    

    What do you think of that?:

    addTable("da-dk-g28_1993.ctb", _("Danish 8 dot grade 2") + " (1993)", contracted=True)
    addTable("da-dk-g28.ctb", _("Danish 8 dot grade 2") + " (2022)", contracted=True)
    

    This would save translators time.

Is there anything NVAccess needs to do or decide to unstick this PR?

@seanbudd Sorry, I forgot the PR. I'll fix the last details and request the review.

@zstanecic So you suggest the following display names, right?

  • Danish 8 dot grade 1
  • Danish 8 dot grade 1 (1993)
  • Danish 8 dot grade 2
  • Danish 8 dot grade 2 (1993)
  • Etc.

Instead of:

  • Danish 8 dot grade 1 (2022)
  • Danish 8 dot grade 1 (1993)
  • Danish 8 dot grade 2 (2022)
  • Danish 8 dot grade 2 (1993)
  • Etc.

Being uniform with Korean tables makes sense to me :)
