Hello,

There is a new screen reader out called cobra. And it does something that I 
wish system access would do. pasted is the small manual section. It would also 
be nice if we could have scripting. If you want to read the cobra manual to get 
more ideas about future system access features just go to:

 COBRA-Key + O: launch screen text recognition 

 When you launch screen text recognition with COBRA-Key + O, a bitmap of the 
screen content is transferred to the text recognition application which then
recognizes the text. 
 During this time you will hear successively "OCR is installed", "load bitmap", 
"bitmap recognized" and "Saving text. 
 The data will not be available until you hear "complete text recognition." 
 You can browse the text on your screen with the navigation functions, the 
Windows key, 
Level 0
 on the 
keypad
 or the navigation keys on your Braille 
display. 
 No cursor is available here. 
 You can also click on the text - the click will operate on exactly that letter 
upon which you have clicked. 
 To return to the original screen, 
refresh
 the screen content with 
COBRA-Key + F5. 
 This function is useful when applications or web pages contain unnamed 
graphics, or when you encounter a text which has only been saved as an image, eg
screenshots or copies of the screen. 
 You can use COBRA as a straightforward screen reader to read PDF files which 
have been saved as images only. 
 You can thus use graphic 
install
 programs or update the firmware of a Nokia mobile 'phone. 
 
Tip: 
 The result is saved in the file in the OUT.RTF COBRA directory. 
 See the chapter "Questions and answers about text recognition" for further 
information.
