Hey folks, We are getting ready for the release of Sodbeans 1.5 and, as many folks know, we distribute our tool in two ways: 1) the NetBeans generated Installer, and 2) Zip file distros. We do the latter because of accessibility problems with the NetBeans generated installers, but we do the former because Windows requires some configuration which some people have to do manually with the zip distribution. While we have tested the installers with JAWS and NVDA, and with the java access bridge installed, they are generally accessible, in practice, they are somewhat difficult to use. Anyway, we are "considering" adding to the development schedule a better installer for the Sodbeans 2.0 release, depending on what else needs to be finished. This sounds easy, but because of the nature of our tools, there are some technical challenges that would take time to finish. So my question. If we were to develop an installer that is highly accessible, does anyone have any tips on generators that others have used that come out really well with screen readers, preferably without needing the Java Access Bridge to be installed? Thanks for any tips, Stefik __________ View the list's information and change your settings at //www.freelists.org/list/programmingblind
