Hi, On Windows jfw with an ssh client, works great! Dave. On 9/9/10, Scott Granados wrote:

Wit, what's wrong with jfw and unix? Log in via SSH and call it done.

If you must run natively look at the speakup stuff or the vilinux project.

Others can speak more intelligently about the native unix support but jfw won't pose a problem logging in remotely at all.

Also consider a Mac since that's natively BSD underthe hood.

Hi everyone,

I am taking a Grad school class in Data Mining and the instructor wants all work done on Unix based machines and of course we know how Jaws and Unix does together. Does anyone have any ideas of a screen reader that would work with Unix?

Thanks,

Greg B.

MacOS is the bees knees in dealing with ssh. You simply run terminal and have native normal good old ssh available. It's a BSD OS underneath so you have all the features you'd expect with a bash shell including Pythan, Expect and Perl. On Sep 10, 2010, at 4:22 PM, Sean Murphy wrote:

Greg,

Use CRT under windows with the "underline" cursor active which you find in Sessions dialog.

The Linux options you have Speakup and Emacspeak. These are shell apps. Orca is the Xwindows screen reader.

I don't know how well the Mac OS works for SSH.
