I mean there should be an additional module which connects to the MSEgui widgets by "iassistiveserver" and "iassistiveclient", which probably booth need to be extended for the task. The module then reacts on 'traffic' on the "iassistiveserver" interface and requests from standard screen reader, complements the information and hands it over to the screen reader by its interface. Currently I have no time to make it myself and I don't know blind programmers whose help is indispensable in order to design a usable system IMO. In case of a development IDE I think that a IDE for visually impaired people must be designed from scratch for the task, only to speak the texts of an IDE designed by and for not visually impaired people can not lead to an optimal result IMHO.
