Where do you get nethack from, and what configuration, the best is to
run talking dosbox from the sources but no one seems to be updating it.
And to be honest I have not bothered running any talking dosbox
instances of late.
The only reason to probably use talking dosbox now especially with if
interpreters for nvda would to run stand alone dos games and those
created in the adventure game toolkit.
Technically there is agility that can run this but you need to recompile
the games to its format and I don't know, there are games suited to stay
in the old days.
I'd really like to have updated and running games but still.

nethack for win10 was written for the eye candy set so has all kinds of
tiles showing up. All of these tiles are graphics. Only way anyone using
win10 gets nethack working for a screen reader user is to run nethack in a
dos environment and configure nethack to only use ascii. Probably
additional configuration will have to be done, I don't have windows around
here to crash and burn it. It will help to have screen size restricted to
25x80 characters when playing nethack in dos mode too.

In nethack hit the question mark key and a help menu will show up and one
of the selections on that is keyboard commands. That should get you the
rosetta stone.

Yeah. I believe it's comma or g, if you are using the numbpad movement
system. I think that defaults to on if you haven't changed any options.
