Here are my ideas/requests for possible Window-Eyes enhancements.
1. The ability to run Window-Eyes completely off of a thumb drive
without the need to install drivers onto the host system. (If this is
already possible, please let me know.
2. An offline dictionary with thesaurus. I realize that some people will
passionately disagree with this request by saying that this is not a
screen-reader specific feature and that we have many online options for
word definitions and synonyms. These statements are all true and so
there's no need to debate that. However, this is something that would
still make Window-Eyes not only useful but unique as I don't believe
this is available in other Windows screen readers. This could be an
optional component to be installed and, like the Mac, could be globally
available, even without an Internet connection. I could envision being
in a Word document or a Web page, placing the cursor on a word without
the need to highlight it first and being able to look up definitions and
such with the press of a hotkey. Again, perhaps this is hardly necessary
but it would make Window-Eyes stand out from the competition.
3. The ability to enter BIOs/Uefi settings and have them accessible.
Maybe it's not possible. However, some might have concluded that screen
readers would never be able to talk in safe mode and Window-Eyes can
offer that capability, which is one of the things which makes it truly
unique and which makes it stand apart from its competition. If AI
Squared could offer this feature you'd be able to do this even more.
And if I may sneak in a fourth idea ...
4. Could we please have built-in voices from other text-to-speech
vendors, such as Ivona or A Capella? This is totally irrational but as
much as I don't mind Samantha on my iPhone I don't care for her as much
on my Windows PC and I'd like to see some additional alternatives.
Thanks for asking for our input.
