[macvoiceover] Re: Voiceover and Chess

The chess game that comes with the Macintosh is very, very accessible.  It's
definitely a ton better than the one we did for JAWS about a decade ago.

My problem is that when I could see, I was a very poor chess player and knew
little more than how to set up the board and which pieces could move in
which ways.  Now that I'm old and grey, I'd like to learn the game but I
cannot find any audio book about the subject (I've not looked too hard but
Bookshare doesn't have it) and my Braille skills are not good at all.  So,
if anyone knows of a how to for blind chess players please send me a
pointer.

Sorry for taking us a bit OT.

Happy Hacking,

Good afternoon,

Is there a chess game that can be played with Voiceover?

Thanks,
Everett
