Hi Mats:
Klavaro has this listed on its web page: "The graphical interface of
Klavaro is based on other program called "GTK+ 2" (not really a program,
but a set of libraries)." So, I'm going to guess it should work within
the AT-SPI environment. I've not tried it with Orca, though, so I don't
know how much work would be needed to make a compelling experience.
From KTouch, I see: "There has been progress on getting KTouch up and
running on KDE 4". This tells me it is probably based upon KDE/Qt and
is thus not really a good player in AT-SPI.

Hi,
The only typing tutor for blind users - in Linux - that I can find is
the TypeFaster Typing Tutor at
http://www.typefastertypingtutor.com/index.html that provides a special
accessible version. However that version seems only to support the
English keyboard. However there is also a Spanishregular version, so
should be possible to merge these two.
But perhaps it would be also possible to make an Orca script for one of
the other typing tutors - such as Klavaro
(http://klavaro.sourceforge.net/en/) or KTouch
(http://ktouch.sourceforge.net/) - to make them work ok for a blind user?

Hi Ronny.
I would recommend the Orca screen reader for Linux.

Note: I've cc'ed the gnome accessibility community.
cheers,
