Please! if you have a program that is not in the list please put it
in. Anyone can add programs. I think this is the best way to collect
that information in an orderly way. So please put information into it.
Also my database support adding programs even if they are not useable
with VoiceOver. Sometimes it is valuable to have that information too.

Folks,
The Mac Visionaries list has been asked to help in the compilation
of applications that are voiceOver compatible. I've already
encouraged Apple to take a close look at Greg kearney's
comprehensive list at his web site.If anyone has anything to add to
this list, please check Greg's list first and, if it's not
represented, mention it here. Please try not to get into an
exhaustive explanation of how accessible or inaccessible it is. Use
your judgement. If it's quite useable with voiceOver, include it. If
it's not terribly useable, don't bother. Also, please don't include
the list below in your reply as it will make your replies and
subsequent replies bigger and bigger and will likely exceed the
message body size limit. So, as succinctly as possilbe, mention any
applications to add to the list below and I'll compile them into one
list. If you happen to know the URL for the manufacturer, that would
be enormously helpful as well.
Thanks for your cooperation,
Slau
