Re: accessible email clients with NVDA
I never tried Eudora but I will give it a shot. As of right now I am trying out OE Classic with the JAWS scripts and comparing the new OE classic with the 2.5 one to see if they really are working with accessibility or if they were just giving me lip service. So far, no NVDA improvements. without the JAWS scripts, JAWS is in the same boat as NVDA. I also tried opra mail and that is not accessible either.

Becky! Internet Mail Version 2 And? That's another e-mail client entirely. All I was trying to do was to clarify that "Klause" mail does not exist while "Claws" mail does. As has already been mentioned, Claws Mail is not accessible with NVDA. Also, Becky! Internet Mail Version 2.7.3 is not free. It comes with a 30 day trial after which you must by a license for $40, which while not exorbitant is more than many might wish to spend when there are a number of very, very good no-cost e-mail clients out there.

table problems with microsoft word
enes sarıbaş
hi,
I was working on a file where everything was as a table. Nvda was lagging significantly and I wrote my information under the various headings. However, my sighted friends who reviewed my file said the table slipped badly and that all the writing had slipped outside of the page. They hardly could read my file. However, I have no problem reading the file except lag. How is this possible? How can I fix this document and prevent this from happening in the future.

Re: espeak
Wagner Soares Da Silva
It also did not work here on a W7 Ultimate 32 BIT.
I've reported the problem to Reece, developer of Espeak NG. Who wants to contribute with Espeak NG, just read the note below for Access the Espeak NG list. * Dear ESpeak-NG users, developers, and other beneficiaries, At the outset, let me sincerely thank Reece for appointing me as a moderator of this Groups.io based next generation mailing list for official discussion regarding the ESpeak-NG speech synthesizer. Also, I would like to express my gratitude towards everyone who joint the e-mail list via invites sent out on different forums, direct invites, word-of-mail (not mouth :D) and also for those who have begun contributing by spreading the word about this project and its community, and by participating in it. Following are some fundamental statistics that highlight the current status of this group: Member Count: 11 Group Owner: Reece H. Dunn Group Moderator: Bhavya Shah (Me) Integrations: Github (https://github.com/espeak-ng/espeak-ng) Also, following are integral e-mail addresses to perform various activities on the group: To Post: espeak-ng@groups.io To Subscribe: espeak-ng+subscribe@groups.io To Unsubscribe: espeak-ng+unsubscribe@groups.io To Contact The Group Owner: espeak-ng+owner@groups.io At the moment, we have no special hashtags in use (apart from Github), no dedicated subgroups (due to lack of their requirement) and no Wiki material (due to their inexistence). However, our vision for this group must extend beyond not only encompassing this in ESpeak-NG's next generation e-group, but also having a prolific and proactive community of users and developers in constant communication and interaction via this list. ESpeak-NG powers the speech synthesis of two popular screen readers by default - NVDA for Windows and Orca for Linux - which in turn fuel computer access for tens of thousands of visually impaired individuals across the globe. Let us recognize the significance of this open source project, and accordingly strive to mobilize its users, developers and other beneficiaries as part of this e-mail platform. Please do spread the word about this mailing list and ask your fellow ESpeak users to join the list by sending a blank mail to espeak-ng+subscribe@groups.io And send a blank reply to the confirmation prompt subsequently received. In conclusion, I hope to dutifully serve as a moderator of this mailing list in a just manner, and I shall try to the best of my abilities to assist Reece in ensuring smooth functioning of this e-group, in constant anticipation of your continued collaboration. Best Regards, Bhavya Shah P.S. Due to Groups.io policies, the first post of every group member will require approval from a group administrator. All messages from that e-mail will be delivered directly thereafter. -- Best Regards Bhavya Shah Avid Enthusiast and User of the Free NVDA Screen Reader (www.nvaccess.org) Contacting Me E-mail Address: bhavya.shah125@...

Accessible IRC clients
Sukil Etxenike <sukiletxe@...>
Hi,
Does anyone know of an IRC client that is accessible with NVDA and notifies the user of incoming messages on all channels? I know that Thunderbird doesn't do that when the window is focused, and that Instantbird does it but is somewhat cluttered and really old. Also, chatzilla seems to do a good job, but sound doesn't seem to work. Any corrections / alternatives? Thanks! Sukil

Re: accessible email clients with NVDA
Because JAWS is the only screen reader that will
work with it, silly. NVDA can't get past the adding mail
accounts. One can make it work by switching from JAWS TO NVDA,
but why bother? They do not care aout accessibility issues, in
my opinion.

Some questions about eSpeak-ng and MBrola
Christo de Klerk
Hello all
I have been using MBrola with the old eSpeak for many years and would like to get it going under eSpeak-ng now I am using NVDA as my screen reader. I have looked at the eSpeak-ng documentation and I think I have copied all the necessary MBrola files into their correct places, but I can't get MBrola activated under NVDA. I select espeak-ng as my synthesiser, then I go to Voice preferences and I see mb-en1 listed there, in the list of voices, but it is the usual eSpeak-ng en voice that keeps talking. How do I get mb-en1 to talk? Then another question. MBrola tools has this confirmation dialog that keeps popping up every first time it is run after a reboot. Has anyone found a way to get that out of the way? It causes havoc, as it pops up before there is any speech. I see there is now a Windows installation of eSpeak-ng. Would it upset the old installation of eSpeak at all if one were to install eSpeak-ng? I don't want to break anything that ain't broke. I see the eSpeak-ng documentation is in a .md format. What does one use to read .md files? Sorry for all the questions, but I am new to espeak-ng and would like to get a grip on it. I have worked with the old eSpeak and have done dictionary development for many years. Kind regards Christo

Re: outlook express question
Gene
I haven't used JAWS or Outlook express for
years. Perhaps JAWS does announce this and I don't recall. As you
say, NVDA doesn't and NVDA isn't user definable in ways that you can change this
behavior. It would require something like a command in a script to cause
this behavior.

----- original Message -----
Jaws does I wonder if that is a function of the scripts. It did work when I tried the command a second time.
From: nvda@nvda.groups.io
[mailto:nvda@nvda.groups.io] On Behalf Of Gene
I've never seen Outlook Express announce the number of unread messages with any screen-reader just by moving from folder to folder. I don't know if the status line tells you the information when you stop at a folder or if you need to move to the message list. that means that I don't know if a screen-reader could be made to announce the information automatically when you move from one folder to the next.

In other words if I’m on the folder for example Nvda 2 unread or something like that. From: nvda@nvda.groups.io [mailto:nvda@nvda.groups.io] On Behalf

I've never seen such information spoken when using Outlook Express without reading the status line.

Use read status line. You don't have to be in the folders list. You can be in the message list as I recall. I haven't used Outlook Express for many years but as I recall, you will hear how many messages are in the list and how many are read and unread. But if my memory is not quite correct, you will still hear what you want, that is the number of unread messages. Read status line in NVDA is NVDA key end. That is for the desktop layout. I don't know the laptop layout command.

Hi, when using NVDA if you tab to your folders NVDA doesn’t say NVDA 5 unread messages is there any way to get it to automatically speak this info??
