This is a built-in feature of jaws, windoweyes , supernova, and the rest ofthem.It is achieved via sending the text to be spoken back over the remote connection and instructing the client on what to speak and when.

For example, I was told that Jaws could run on a remote server and the client application could send a text to the server for getting the sound from it, but how can it get it? As an mp3 file? As a .wav? Or something else? Would it be legally to use Jaws this way from more client machines thatcould access a server that runs Jaws? ... or Window Eyes... no matter whichof them.And one more thing... If that program can be used that way, why does it needto use Jaws or Window Eyes? Why not using just the voice synthesizer in order to produce the sound?I think that very few things were said here on the list about that project,and many more things off the list, but I think that most of the listers don't know too much about it.

Like others, Iconfess having trouble understanding the full ramifications. Could you orSina describe some vignettes from a user's perspective?I think I understand that this technology would allow someone on a Windowscomputer (e.g., running JAWS) to operate a remote Linux computer with Orca. Is that right? Would JAWS need to be running after the connection was made? If so, would there be key conflicts to manage between JAWS and Orca? Does this technology also allow Java applications to be self voicing? Do they have to implement the Swing API according to accessibility guidelines? If one has a Java app installed, how would the self-voicing part be added? I know from the quality of your skills and the time you have invested in this project that it is something with exciting potential. I'm just trying to get a better grasp of what it would and would not do. If thereare any sample apps or audio demos that illustrate the possibilities, thatwould be great.
