Subject: terminal accessibility
moin moin,

I got a question about terminal accessibility. The accessiblity team there
has orca for GUI. Looks like orca was originally for providing
accessibility for GNOME.

orca - Scriptable screen reader

They still need something that works for command line.

Anyone know if orca works with gnome-terminal to provide accessibility for
command line?

I found the following packages, but have no experience with them.

fenrir - Userland console (TTY) screen reader written in python
yasr - General-purpose console screen reader

Also, a two parter emacs question.

One can run shell commands in emacs. Can the experience be terminal like
enough to use that as the shell? The vi mechanism for running commands is
not sufficient to pretend it's a shell.

If the emacs command line interface is usable as a shell, does emacsspeak
provide a sufficient audio interface for it?

ciao,

der.hans
