Dark, Actually, the custom AA clients are written in C++, and don't have any dependency on flash. Part of the reason they aren't accessible is because I had to write my own graphical renderer for the main text window, and I could never figure out how to hook it up to the accessibility APIs. At this point though, Mush Z probably does a better job than I would have anyway.
