I would support all the stuff since I have to use jfw at school (and I had to get it at home, both hads meaning seriously that I couldn't do anything else....)

What in the name of Bob do they think they're doing? I mean I hate Greedom Science Fiction but this is just a new low as far as I'm concerned. And it's stuff like that that has convinced me that if and when I start developing my own games (I'm making slow progress with BGT), and if I decide to add options into some of my games for screen reader support I would almost be tempted not to support JAWS. Of course I have a feeling it would be better just to use Sapi support if not go outright self-voicing. I mean if I supported one screen reader in my games I'd almost have to support the competition since there are those who are still going to be staunch users like I was until about three years ago. So I may not even bother with screen reader support in my games, especially since I really don't plan on making many games where that would really fit all that well.
