Hi Malte, Thanks for your e-mail.
OLE Automation would be perfect for our scripting language (which includes the LuaCOM library). So are you saying that via OLE Automation I can for instance access the UNO Accessibility API's XAccessibleTextAttributes interface to allow the screen reader to speak the default paragraph and character attributes of a section of text, or access the XAccessibleTable interface's getAccessibleRowCount or getAccessibleCellAt methods to allow the screen reader to speak formatting information about tables in a Writer document?

I guess/hope one of these can be used from your scripting language? Malte. PS: Please subscribe to the list, as a reply normally only goes to the list.
