there are several online tools for testing out general accessibility by the blind. Not sure if there are any workstation based utilities to do the same thing.
btw, I am probably one of only 2 or 3 people who are in plug that are anywhere near expert on this (being totally blind more or less forces one to be an expert). I can dig up some links if you want. btw, most browsers these days let you ignore the site specific items and customize for yourself. one place you can check first is here: http://usabilitygeek.com/10-free-web-based-web-site-accessibility-evaluation-tools/ there are extensions for both opera and firefox that also perform much the same thing. btw, when I am in linux, I use ORCA for the unity DM. it's also useful in KDE and some others. I have tried out bratty for the console prompt stuff. it works ok. btw, I recently hit upon an idea that would make sense, if I can get any of the players in the UEFI consortium to agree to it. the UEFI is either linux based or mimics linux (both in tools and functionality). it wouldn't be all that hard to setup a UEFI that also has an accessibility tool (like BrlTTY). just about anything that app needs can be compiled in to reduce the footprint and the UEFI can have the modules outboard instead of being compiled in to the kernel (this really would make it universal). the only issue I see is Microsoft (they have their fingers buried deeply in UEFI and getting them to play ball requires legal action most times). anyway, thats my 2 cents worth for now. -eric home office of the technomage guild On Dec 5, 2016, at 8:47 AM, Stephen Partington wrote: > Well the contrast is good, but I just dislike the various shades of mustard. > especially when paired with blue. > > On Mon, Dec 5, 2016 at 8:15 AM, Anon Anon <[email protected]> wrote: > Hey all, > > https://retro64.xyz/ > > Any one have a good method for testing a website for consumption by the color > blind? > > I need to test it works with screen readers as well but I xan handle that > with blinks. > > Thanks, > Aaron > > --------------------------------------------------- > PLUG-discuss mailing list - [email protected] > To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: > http://lists.phxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss > > > > -- > A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from > rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button. > > Stephen > > --------------------------------------------------- > PLUG-discuss mailing list - [email protected] > To subscribe, unsubscribe, or to change your mail settings: > http://lists.phxlinux.org/mailman/listinfo/plug-discuss
