Well the Java program runs on Mac but there is a problem with the list boxes
accessibility.  Now that I have a mac I will be looking into the problem.  I
take that back I had a Mac before but now that I have one that I must use I
will look into it.

Hi Jamal. I will do some research and try to produce a fruit basket 
program in python with gtk. GTK apps, I believe, are accessible with 
orca. My current learning focus right now is in c plus plus, so I'll try 
to produce a fruit basket program for gnome in c plus plus as well.
