Hi Jamal,
I don't think I have enough knowledge to try that stuff out, but I'm willing to 
give it a try if someone wants to talk me through some tasks.

Like Rick, I'm curious whether anyone has tried the Eclipse 
Accessibility Tools Framework (ACTF), which is available at

There are a few downloads for different tools.  Does anyone find them 
useful for particular tasks?  How accessible are they to use?
