Hi Paul, If you have fossil on your machine already, you could try: https://fossil.tubul.net/tt_dw/doc/trunk/bash/INSTALL.sh downloading INSTALL.sh into an empty directory then run INSTALL.sh. If you have sqlite3 on your machine running this script will put a bunch of directories with files in them on your system. Inside the scripts/bash directory discworld.sh will be found. Run that script then type /discworld then things should start happening. There's a constant enter password prompt at the bottom of the screen each time after you logged in. Ignore that and you'll have discworld running with sounds enabled. To loose that constant password prompt in the scripts subdirectory I run tt++ -G -s -r discworld.tin and log in that way but sacrifice sounds that way. This whole project is about to move to github and should be easier to clone that way. I am in contact with the developer and the developer isinterested in working on problems screen reader users encounter with his scripts.
