Hi:
Not really geared toward the blind for latest versions of software. That
said, the books on Inthanes site are digital, text format you can read with
your screen reader. They cover several languages like Vb.net CSharp and the
like. If you are embarking on Programming as a career and getting ready to
start school you will need to be able to do afew things pretty well.
First, you need to know your screen reader. Next, you need to contact your
school's Accessibility Advisor if they have one to see what help they may
offer. This may be a CC TV if you still have some vision, a new or recent
version of one of the popular Screen Readers on a computer in a lab, a place
where you might have a textbook either scanned in and edited or the possibility
of ordering a digital copy from the publisher, I think they are required to
have them available to the blind but don't hold me to that, I really am not
sure.
Now, whatever books you get from Intanes site will be readable and you can
check out chapters on whatever subject you are studying in school to have
several views of the same information. Also, get really good Googling. Most
everything you will run up against, except perhaps accessibility issues, has
been encountered by others already and usually noted someplace witha a solution
of sorts. Also, while folks are not likely to write your programs for you
they will certainly help with logic, technical questions and accessibility
issues on this list.
I am guessing that the major problem you will face is the first year. Trying
to keep up with the class while scrambling to find accessible resources and how
to use them. That's why I said do the accessibility checking up front with
Inthane's site tutorials, at least read through a couple to get a feel how they
will read. Also, be specific. What will be the first class you will take?
Big diference between something like Vb.net or CSharp.net and C++ or Linux
based software. What does your school use Windows or What?
That's all I have for now.

Guys,
I can't take my way widely in empowering my career in programming in C,
C++, Cobol, Database, Java, Visually Basic and etc.
Is there any complete step-by-step tutorials from the beginning to the end
for the blind that I can download in any digital format?
Please, tutorials-For my self-study.
I'll wait for your ripe fruits of responses, shares, and suggestions.
Thanks.
