From what I've seen in some Perl applications made using Tk, the single
accessible thing was the menu.
It was a long time ago, but if I remember well the text labels displayed can
be also seen with JAWS cursor, so it might be possible to script a TK
interface and make it a little better. But probably it won't be really
friendly for the blind.
For the moment I think that the best free editor for NVDA users is notepad++
and the best commercial editors for JAWS users are TextPad and UltraEdit.
The environments like Eclipse and VisualStudio are accessible and they
usually offer plugins for more programming languages, so they can be used if
someone prefers intellisense and don't bother that they are so heavy.

Last time I checked, tk doesn't expose any accessibility information
at all. Am I wrong about this?

I may spend a little time with that, to see if I can script some
slight improvements. You can at least see the command interpreter
with the jaws cursor. So, that is hopeful. But, I wouldn’t want
to write code in there.

you can take a look at wwindows key->all programs->python2x->idle
you know much more than I do about jaws scripting, but I heard that
the problem is that Idle uses TK widgets and they don’t work with
jaws

Say What? So there is an IDE included with python itself?

There are several IDE’s for Python, but as I understand it, most
are not accessible. Like Les I have heard that Eclipse works with
screen readers, but I don’t use it.
Some of the other IDE may work with a little jaws scripting though.
JDog told me yesterday he might try scripting the IDE that comes
with Python.

Hi guys,
What I want is to start typing a reference, and maybe get through
the objectName. Tap the period key, and then pull up a list of
methods and properties that are available on that object, and
presss enter to choose one to use in my code. Is there something
like that for python?
