To provide access to the content of a terminal in a more suited way than a mere text component: terminal readers need to be able to easily access to the jth character of the ith line, for instance. The start of discussion was here http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-accessibility-devel/2005-June/msg00004.html and resulted to an AccessibleTerminal interface draft from Bill Haneman: http://www.gnome.org/~billh/at-spi-new-idl/html/html/interfaceAccessibility_1_1Terminal.html Apropos, I recently posted a comment in http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=143201 that says that one of the features that is missing in this draft is for the screen reader to know whether echo is activated in the tty layer of the terminal or not, so that the reader can automatically know whether it should speak the typed characters or not (think about passwords...)
