Re: [orca-list] The Jupiter console screen reader



Hello,


Yes thank you for the tip. Completelly independent of your recommendation I've discovered jupiter and acsint last week.

It is awesome however currently it can only handle english, portuguese (most likelly contributed by you), german and french texts displayed on the console.

I've exchanged a few emails with its author Karl Dahlke about this. This is because originally the whole jupiter used to be kernel space module. Now it's outsourced into a kernel module, a library and user space adapter (similar to a screen reader).

Long term solution to this might be that language support or at least locale handling will be tweaked to take advantage of locale support which comes with almost all linux distributions.


I am in the process of learning the system and hopefully contributing slovak and czech support.


By the way I was able to get this also working on raspberry II.


Thank you


Greetings


Peter

Hi especially for Peter Vágner and everyone that talked about YASR
some weeks ago. I use to leave this list in vacation mode, so only now
I have come accross that conversation. You may want to try the acsint
project, formely known as jupiter, developed by Karl Dahlke, the
author of edbrowse. I think it's the best terminal screen reader ever,
though its setup process can be complicated due to kernel sources
requirement. Among its features are support for unicode, reading the
screens beyond what is visible, fully keys customization, per
application profiles, etc etc. Check it at:

Feel free to forward this as you want. Greetings,
Cleverson
