I am blind and use a screen reader called JAWS For Windows to provide screen access in speech and braille. I am finding the VIEW command to be very difficult to use. The biggest problem at the moment is that JAWS can't keep track of the current position on the screen because VIEW doesn't use the normal caret as an editor does. How does VIEW indicate the current position? Perhaps if I knew that I could tell JAWS what to track but I'm not sure if that would be enough. I suspect that a custom JAWS script would have to be written to handle VIEW and that's beyond my skill level. Does VIEW/V's author know of anyone who is using the program with JAWS and how they've made it work?
I understand that it is possible for a program to tell whether a screen reader is present. Perhaps a future version of V could take advantage of this and modify its behavior for screen readers.
