Easiest way to read status line in any application that has one
is NVDA-KEY+END.

accessible Medium desktop client
I've been on the hunt for a desktop application that would hook into the API. why? well, because it is a really great way for writers, independent writers, to create their own content and get paid for it. The below is the closest thing I could find. I've been told it's very accessible on the Mac, but I have no idea personally. I'm sharing this here just in case anyone would know of someone remotely interested in creating a windows version. Publishing through Google docs works very well, but I like writing offline, without a browser open.

Re: Integrating an existing website with Wordpress

Hello, John. I'm assuming (& that's always dangerous, because you know
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
what you do when you do that), that you're wanting to keep the existing site but make a supplemental site in addition to it, ie, a blog, a store, or similar. So what you do here is install WordPress to a separate subdirectory, ie, blog, store, etc. Then, code a link to the WordPress site on your homepage's menu, & you're good to go.

It appears that once you are on the status bar,
this is a tool bar and that to see what is shown, you need to use the right and

Re: Microsoft word question
Gene
I should say that the information is there but you
may have to experiment to see just how to get to it. I have Word Starter,
which is not the newest version of Word. I found, when playing with the
status line after writing my previous message in the thread, that it may move up
a number of lines from the bottom. If the read status line reads the
bottom line and it isn't the status line, moving up should find it. I also
find that information isn't necessarily presented in a proper manner. Read
the line a bit at a time, perhaps character by character in some places. I
found that at times, in my version, the number of words is followed by another
number and then a space. So I might se 101 which means ten words and then
the number 1. I'm not sure what the number 1 is referring to. It may
refer to the page I'm on but I didn't try to figure it out. My point is
that the information is there if you figure out how to read it.
Someone has already told you another way to get a
word count and that would be easier to use if it matches the procedure in your
version. But you may want or need, for some reason, to use the status line
for this or other information. and its good to know about it just from a
standpoint of equality. If sighted people have this resource and they find
it useful, why shouldn't blind people know about it? You don't have to
know everything a sighted person knows or sees in a program but there are
certain features that it may be useful to know about.
Programs that still have status lines may have
useful information in the status line and it is a good idea to look for a status
line in various programs. At times, useful information is not found in a
traditional status line, by which I mean at the bottom of a screen or there may
not be one. but, for example, in MP3 Direct Cut, the program gives you
useful information in a line near the top of the page. When the program is
recording, it says, writing and then gives the path and filename of the file it
is writing to. That keeps you from issuing the record command and not
knowing if the program is recording. That line also gives information
about how far, by minutes and seconds, you are into the file when you are
playing or editing it.
My overall point is that unless people start
looking around using review keys in programs where they aren't getting enough
information in other ways, they may be significantly limiting the accuracy
and/or convenience of use of the program.

Hi all. I am facing a strange issue with Thunderbird and that is when I am composing mail directly with it, NVDA seems to lag horribly. NOw I can't tell if it is TB's or NVDA's fault, or some setting in tb that I should change. This occurs not only when I am typing but also when I am reviewing the message I am writing. No matter if I arrow left or right, or ctrl+arrow left or right, the lag seems to be there all the time. So is it just me experiencing this or is this a Tb or NVDA problem? Just as a note, this horrible lag only happens with TB. If some help is forthcoming, i would greatly appreciate it. Cheers!
