Ok, we tried installing the mobileSpeak package I downloaded from the codeFactory page inside the microsoft device emulator sort of virtual machine instance of windows mobile 6.0 professional, but it almost seemed like the combination of the emulator and maybe the screen reader software were interfering with eaxch other in terms of passing input through to the operating system or something, so for now have just moved over to actually installing it on the handset itsself - not sure of which model it is off hand, but it has both a touch screen interface, along with quite a few keys etc., so will now just want to get comfortable firstly using the unit/interface itsself, and will then check out whether/how to make python output interface usable/testable from my side, but am also busy talking to local distributors of this screen reader software to get their take on it.

Thanks

some or other virtual version of windows mobile/CE will be accessible as
such, since really not too sure if even a real unit/device will be able to
run some form of narrator/screen reader software, etc.

Stay well

using tkinter for my apps gui it all generally was cross platform, the only thing i needed to wrap as i recall was file access i just had an if depending on the OS to give it the path to the files i was playing with.

dunno if that'll be enough for what you want it for though. If your after it playing sounds I'd look into getting the app to play the sounds itself, screen readers generally aren't all that good
