Re: MIDI Sequencer

[Bill Haneman <gnome billhaneman ie>]

Thomas and Chris;

In reply to your question regarding accessible wave editors, I believe 
audacity has been tested with Windows access technologies (on Windows, 
that is).  Because audacity is written with the WxWindows toolkit (I 
believe that's what it's called), it doesn't yet take advantage of 
native Linux accessibility interfaces such as ATK.

The latter would be a great project for someone to help the audacity 
team with, as they clearly are interested in making their 
project/product accessible.

regards,

Bill
