Hi all,

As some on list may remember I had reason to post a long time ago about my 
search for an accessible open vpn client.

Now while (to the best of my knowledge) accessibility for the GUI-based clients 
hasn't noticeably improved, one application, tunnelblick, has made a jump 
forward and is now perfectly usable *if* you're prepared to use applescript.  
While it's true that the connections can't be started easily from the gui you 
can start them now through applescript.  I've been playing with this a bit over 
the past day, and I now have almost complete control over the connections.  I 
paste a sample script below:

tell application "Tunnelblick"
        get configurations
        connect "openvpn"
end tell

Note I've just called the config "openvpn" for convenience here.

There are many other entries in the tunnelblick dictionary and its home page is 
at:

http://code.google.com/p/tunnelblick/

This may be of absolutely no use to anyone, but it's no harm to have it in the 
list archives anyway.
