Another direction might be to tie a button box to the GPIs of Rivendell.  We 
did this for one of our operators that was blind with a different automation 
system.  I believe we used a broadcast tools 10 or so button box and he could 
fly with it.  He ran the tightest shows I had ever heard.

Subject: Re: [RDD] How accessable is Rivendell

Hi all,

I don't know enough about this subject to give Seth a good answer but I 
think as a list we can do better than just ignore the question.  My 
guess would be that QT3 which is what Rivendell is coded upon is not 
very good for accessibility.  This is purely based upon other languages 
I've used where older versions just never covered that topic.

So I decided to do a bit of investigating.  As it stands Orca won't 
tell you any information about any of the Rivendell apps.  I tried 
turning on all the speak options and not a single word was uttered.

There does seem to be support for Accessibility options in QT4 but I 
can't find any info about QT3.  Does anyone know if its even possible to 
add this in QT3?

If you use or know of any other Linux friendly programs Seth please let 
me know and I'll try and load them up to see if they work any better.

Regards,

Wayne
