Hi! Thanks a lot for this! I've found about 15 of them in total, but none of the developers seemed very interested in either continuing development or improving VoiceOver support. No more Espeak now. I'll give this a bit of a test drive soon enough and give feedback of course. I wonder about

Mud is multi user dungeon. So a client will use a given game's telnet link so that you can play, they are text based. A lot of them offer ports to play using the browser but that usually isn't very good for screen readers, they can get slow and cumbersome, and that can be deadly if you are

Orin, Respectfully, I disagree that the system voice is as big a problem as you seem to think. You can interrupt it with control, and that is one of the big concerns I had. Also, the button label issue has already been mentioned, and while it's not ideal I hardly consider it a deal breaker.

Hmm. if you can use control, it's not so bad I suppose. Still a lot to get used to, and I guess I don't mind that. What do you recommend as far as VO activities go? Just set it to mute speech? Orin orin8...@gmail.com Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/orinks Skype: orin1112 On May 11, 2012, at

Muting speech is what I use, yes. If I need to interact with the client proper, to read something or whatever, I use vo-x-x to switch back to the default activity. I don't use activities very much otherwise, so find this efficient. Yes, control works to interrupt speech as you would expect. I
