Re: accessible programing languages for the blind?
Python is not an environment like BGT, which is just a scripting language, simplified in many ways, but powerful in a special subset of programming that it focuses on. Python is a full-fledged opensource programming language. That means that everything is possible, either directly with your own code, using already made Python libraries for manipulating things like TTS, or directly through the system DLL's, COM interface or system services or whatever. Anything can be done in a complete programming language, but that doesn't mean it's going to be done easily, and without any learning and practice. Also, I'm not even sure if a totaly blind programmer can successfully make entertaining, engaging audiogames that would contain high-quality graphics. Perhaps just some simple high-contrast basic shapes for low vision players, something like David Greenwood did in Shades of Doom, why not. But I really can't imagine anything more advanced than that being done by a
totally blind developer. This was a sum-up just so that you know what to expect.
