Thank you jwi, and Jacob, I took a look at that posting and it seems pretty unique. I am not much interested in the speech driven development, but I am very interested in developing an accessible IDE. A professor and I have been throwing around the idea of developing a completely text based IDE. There are a lot of reasons this could be beneficial to a blind developer and maybe even some sighted developers who are comfortable in the terminal. The idea would be really just to provide a way of easily navigating blocks of code using some kind of tabular formatting, and being able to collapse blocks of code and hearing from a high level information about the code within. All tools and features would obviously be spoken or output in some kind of audio manor.
Jacob, I know your name and I do know Jamal's name as well. I think I recall your names from either back in the "Mobile Speak" days, or maybe from the jaws mailing list. Either way thank you for the feedback and I will take a look at edSharp today. The Python interpreter is great for small tests or scripts but for lengthy programs there is no easy way to save your code other than capturing the entire history with extra code and all. How do you typically handle that issue? Thank you both. Oh and before I forget does anyone know how to contact Eric who was developing that accessible speech driven IDE?
