Any word on using voice over on the mac in terms of programming
accessibility?  I am asking because I am thinking on switching.

        Does this program fully work with NVDA, or will I need JAWS or
Window-Eyes for this? I'm asking as I use NVDA full time and try not to rely
on the commercial offerings.
        


We are working on improving NVDA support for NetBeans right now, but fired
up NVDA in Visual Studio as we were doing some testing the other day.
Specifically, under VS 2008, we noticed that the menus made sound, but the
text editor didn't appear to be read by the screen reader with the default
settings. We are still using VS 2008 in our lab, so I'm not sure about the
newer 2010 version.

It works fine with JAWS though, again with either the default settings (or
the scripts),
