Hi,
I have an old set of scripts for HyperTerminal/TeraTerm that I adapted so that
they were somewhat usable with vi and Lynx. I'm going to try to get them
working for Putty, too. They have a mode where you can press keys that move the
invisible cursor all around on the screen. In this way, you can park the
invisible cursor and go back to where it was. Unfortunately, you still have to
look around on the screen for some things when you're at a command line, but
I've never seen a screen reader that prevented you from having to do something
like this.

Hi
I can't help you, but I really want to use putty.
I'm currently using Cygwin - works well, but it's a bit cumbersome to
install and update on each machine I use.
I tried putty with JAWS and it's useless for me.
I used Putty with magnification, but after I became a JAWS user I've been
unable to use it.
Braille don't work and I need to use the JAWS cursor to read the putty
window.

Hi,
I wonder of someone more experienced than I am with frames would want to co=
mment on this idea.
I e-mailed a couple days ago saying that when I tried to use Putty, when da=
ta scrolled off the screen, JAWS 11 was speaking the whole screen. I had pu=
t in the usual fix of adding the window class to the place where JAWS looks=
for the console window stuff.
I was considering that it might make JAWS quit doing that if I would make a=
silent frame that includes everything but the last line of the screen. Tha=
t might make it act like a command prompt window.
Any thoughts?
