Hi Al, Perhaps. I agree writing a tutorial or guide on how to use the game with the various screen readers would be easier than a rewrite. The only problem with that is I am not familiar with every single screen reader on the planet so couldn't tell someone how to use say Supernova with the game as I know absolutely zilch about that screen reader. I know how to use NVDA, because I use it all the time. I know Orca quite well because I use it everyday too. I know Jaws fairly well, because I used it for years before changing screen readers. However, I can not write a guide for a screen reader I have never used, and besides all the documentation should be available in your screen reader documentation already. If a person knows how to use their review cursor wether it is called the mouse cursor, Jaws Cursor, review cursor, whatever that's all you really need to know to review the text on the screen anyway. Plus as Dark pointed out most screen readers have a find command that will allow you to look for text on screen as well which would help in certain instances of a large table of names or moves, etc..
