or you could use talking dosbox using NVDA and your favorite voice as the tts output for a dos screen reader like asap. by the way i got lotus123 ver2 working in talking dosbox. my question though is this. i got the pinochle game from nfbnet.org/files/games when i run it it says please enter your name. i put in my name hit enter and nothing. it just moves me to the next line. or is this one of those games that doesn't work in dosbox?

While there are NVDA add-ons meant to help with IF games, etc., I have also in past used a version of winFrotz that offers it's own TTS reading/output - the version have here at moment is 1.16.


However, I have NVDA add-ons both for general IF, and windows frotz itself installed, and with a quick test now, NVDA was quite happy to both automatically read output, and could also just use navigator keystrokes to also read the text in the output window.


Now, will also say that am not 100% sure which of these add-ons does all the work, or if it's a combination, but, you can get both the interactive fiction interpreter add-on, and the windows frotz add-on from the following add-on listing page:

Hello all,
My question is actually in the subject line. I started using NVDA and I think that it is going to become my primary screen reader. Jaws was my priority until a few days ago, so I am still getting used to. When I was playing if games before, I would mainly use Jaws cursor to navigate in the text. I was using Filfre and the thing went well. However, I don't think that NVDA is actually going to read the text automatically, and the navigation by navigator object seems a little strange...
What are your experiences with IF and NVDA?
Thanks to everybody in advance, and best regards!
