Dear all, This is my first post to the list, with a new MacBook in hand and an unfamiliar operating system to learn. I'm approaching this from a UNIX background - mostly Linux, but I also had an account on a SUNOS (later Solaris) machine for a number of years. I'm also familiar with both Android and IOS, as well as older operating systems such as MS-DOS, and, going back further, the Apple II, for anyone who remembers DOS 3.3, ProDOS, BEX, WordTalk, etc.
What are the most effective ways of reviewing and working with the OS X terminal using VoiceOver, with a braille display and speech? I've searched the list archives, where I found a recommendation to turn on the numpad in the terminal application so as to use the scrollback buffer. However, the keyboard on my laptop, as with almost every laptop that I've ever owned, doesn't include a numeric keypad. Incidentally, the machine is running OS X 10.9.3. What's the optimal way to set this up? <--- Mac Access At Mac Access Dot Net ---> To reply to this post, please address your message to [email protected] You can find an archive of all messages posted to the Mac-Access forum at either the list's own dedicated web archive: <http://mail.tft-bbs.co.uk/pipermail/mac-access/index.html> or at the public Mail Archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/>.
