Re: [Audyssey] Screen readers working with DOS box.
I know, but just mentioned it, and think it will also work for users of the right operating system in 40 minute demo mode etc., but, yes, not for everyone. Was actually more that hadn't really thought of that use of it until the thought popped up.

Hi Jacob, Yeah, I have heard about this feature, but since not everyone is a Jaws user its hardly an absolute work around for screen reader users. I use NVDA, and I'm not about to pay a small fortune to get Jaws 13 just for that feature. Cheers!

For any who don't know about it, convenient OCR is a newish inclusion in jaws 13 - currently in public beta phase - and it lets you carry out OCR on current windows contents and then navigate them using the jaws/mouse cursor, but anyway.

Re: [Audyssey] Screen readers working with DOS box.
Not 100% relevant, but just tried out convenient OCR from jaws 13 beta on a dosbox window, and it does then let me at least scan/read the contents of the dosbox window, but haven't tried much more than that as of yet. For any who don't know about it, convenient OCR is a newish inclusion in jaws 13 - currently in public beta phase - and it lets you carry out OCR on current windows contents and then navigate them using the jaws/mouse cursor, but anyway.
