Windows isn't switching to a Linux kernel for native Windows desktop and apps. Rather, they're adding a more tightly integrated Linux subsystem

Hi Janine, Again, I likely should have started my own thread rather than ask my question here. I know that Mac os has its own terminal. My wondering was if Voiceover works at least in a basic level in that terminal, meaning no other screen reader is needful. as I am not a windows user at

Hi, Karen: This isn't for Voice Over and the Apple OS X environment. It's for Windows 10, so is relevant here because of Bootcamp. You would use whichever screen reader you use with Windows on Bootcamp, e.g. NVDA. At least this is how it's worked for the past 3 years since Microsoft first

You can use VoiceOver in the terminal, but it doesn't work very well. If you're reading output of a program, and new text comes in, VoiceOver will immediately begin reading the new text. Sent from my iPhone > On May 13, 2019, at 11:18 AM, Karen Lewellen wrote: > > Hi Gena, > actually I

Hi Gena, actually I likely should have asked that better. In a way you answered it though. One can use voiceover...at all, in the terminal? By which I mean your chosen voice remains, even if some keystrokes change? Kare On Mon, 13 May 2019, Georgina Joyce wrote: Hello Karen, I have

I use TDSR for the Mac terminal. Its not Fenrir on Linux, but it works well. Just do everything in screen so if TDSR crashes, you won't lose what you're doing. Sent from my iPhone > On May 13, 2019, at 11:00 AM, Georgina Joyce wrote: > > Hello Karen, > > I have only used linux applications
