[nvda] Re: How to make an application accessible to NVDA

It is written for Window-Eyes but most of the information is helpful for other screen readers as well.

Yes, it's clearly better if an application is designed to be
accessible.  I expect that in many cases the authors simply haven't
considered this, or don't know what this means.  I don't.

Is there a basic guide somewhere which explains what a software
designer should do to make their application easily accessible to
screenreaders such as NVDA?  Perhaps there should be a link to such a
document from the NVDA website?
