I have always found putty ok in the accessibility area, its only drawback is that I always had to use my "jaws" cursor to reread the window. I think I have a set of instructions here for making it work better with jaws that you can try, the P U T T Y client is free so won't cost you a cent to try out. just let me know, elf "Three things that should NEVER! be brought together; a laptop computer, a full cup of coffee, and a sneeze!" - Unknown Author- ----- Original Message ----- From: Brent Neal To: programmingblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Tuesday, April 27, 2010 6:52 AM Subject: SSH and PUTTY Accessibility I am now on the data warehouse team which is a better match for me. We are trying to see if we can overcome the accessibility problems so I can take my turn being on call. Is SSH or Putty more accessible with JAWS in accessing a LINUX system from windows. We installed SSH 3.2 but it is a trial version and I am not sure how much the commercial version cost or even where to purchase it. When I try to go to their website most of it is in a different language. Is PUTTY free or is there also a cost after the trial version? I appreciate any information anyone has on these issues. I am using JAWS 11.0 on Windows XP. Brent Neal 140 E 300 S Salt Lake City, UT 84111 Programmer Phone: 801.526.9797 Email: bneal@xxxxxxxx
