I read the NVDA developer guide. I found it to be well-written for what
it covers, but lacking enough information for someone to script NVDA to
maximize usability of a particular application (unless someone is
already familiar with NVDA internals). I could not find a comprehensive
list of events or convenience methods for inspecting an application. I
suspect the NVDA source code includes methods for getting and setting
various properties of controls without having to execute various Windows
API calls.
Also, I could not find any complete app modules that illustrate a full
customization of an application via Python scripting. The appmodules
directory, in which such modules are supposed to be placed, is empty by
default. Where are the modules for Firefox, Thunderbird, Office
applications, etc? Is all that handled by hard coded routines within
the core of NVDA?
I may be missing something, so welcome any answers to these questions or
pointers to material with more information.
