Hi:
On spanish mailing list has been discussed the difficulties of a pupil
typing his password for Gmail.
Some people would like to listeng the typed characters on protected
controls.
There is an issue for this at
https://github.com/nvaccess/nvda/issues/4624
I created a branch for this issue, though now I don't like my code,
since I modified speech instead of api.
The issue is opened, but there are people which requires this now.
I have created a very small add-on based on other one shared by James
Scholes, that report the spoken text, and indentones add-on, that is,
here I just act on api isTypingProtected function, intendent to
determine when keyboard echo needs to be suppressed.
I will be grateful if you can review this small piece of code, and let
me know if you want me to create the repo for the inclussion of the
add-on on the community website. Thanks:
