Can I intrude a very daft question here... I didn't know there were screenreader API's. Could anyone point me in the direction of documentation on their use? My reason for asking is that I'm working on an EU sponsored project at the moment which aims to provide blind/visually impaired people access to diagrams in a distance-Ed or e-learning environment. There is a debate in the consortium about whether to go self-voicing or to tap into the screenreader the person is using. I'd be interested to play with both options. We're writing, incidentally, in C++ with a front-end in WX. Thanks for any information.
