Molly, You are the first person I know of who's attempting to do something I've taught my private students in the past. And you don't use a "prepared mouse" to do that. It can be really handy to use t

- Agreed. But that has nothing to do, really, with learning Python. And needing to learn the keyboard commands for any new piece of software you might be using is just a standard part of the procedure

Good afternoon, I have two of these gadgets and the keyboard docking stations that they go inside. Does anyone know what they are and are they still used or good for anything? Thanks, Rich

Hi. I find this topic really interesting, as I am just starting to practice using a mouse in combination with NVDA. I purchased a wireless mouse, as I needed one for my class. With NVDA’s mouse tracki

The only thing I could see needing some tutoring is the code editor, VS Code or Notepad Plus plus, and using a keyboard only approach to using the editor, and using less-than and greater-than instead

And I will say, again, that while I understand entirely why a screen reader user does not want to use a mouse or mouse pad to move the mouse pointer, I fail to understand the resistance to using the a

I fail to see why one would need the tutorial to be targeted specifically at blind people. There is a good deal of first-party documentation available on the Python website. I first learnt Python with

Dear David and Chris, Interestingly, I use a mixture of ESpeak-NG and IBM Eloquence myself, switching between the two from time to time. I think it is unlikely that this issue has to do with the speec

Hi Don This youtube playlist offer tutorials on python programming with NVDA. I've just save it into my account, not listen yet. I think it would be useful for you: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?li

- As an aside, you could use Notepad++ as your editor instead. It does support Python language checking (among many others).

Are there any tutorials or courses to learn Python as a blind person?

Nothing; Idle is not accessible with NVDA.

I have downloaded and installed python 3 on my system. I downloaded some sample programs. I can choose to edit one of the programs using Idle 3.9. Doing this opens what I assume is Idle but NVDA will

- That member would be me. I still have the gawk script I wrote to do this, and if you want to send me your JDF file I'll gladly run it through so that you can be the next test case. I did not get eno

In the archives, I had stumbled upon a member seeking some way to convert their JAWS dictionary into NVDA format so an existing large JAWS dictionary didn't need to be manually created entry by entry
