OK, that's pretty much what thought - that software alone wouldn't do it...<smile>

Pretty much unrelated, but, the reason have this VMWare image here is that it apparently has window-eyes installed under windows 3.1, but, haven't been able to get that to launch after starting up windows using win command line command - can tell it's launched windows by doing sort of on-screen OCR on VMWare window, but can't take it much further than that, thus far.

Stay well

Hi Jacob,

there were actually several high quality Dos screen readers available
in the early to mid 90's. There was Jaws for Dos, Vocal-Eyes, and ASAP
which were the main three widely in use. However, if you want to use
any of them you will have to also have a hardware synthesizer like a
Dec Talk or Double Talk since there were no software synthesizers
available at that time. At least none that could be used by those
three screen readers.

Cheers!

Thomas, what dos screenreaders were there?

Asking, partly, since have a VMWare image here including dos 6.2, or
thereabouts, and windows 3.1 in it, but anyway..?

Stay well
