Hello Harry and Listers.
I would very much agree with you. Discussions about the accessability of
Dos, when using JFW. While the latter software does have its weaknesses
as does any program, inaccessability to Dos is certainly not one of them.
HJ provides us with two paths to Dos applications, both of which have been
amply discussed on this list. By using external screen readers, Jaws 2.31
in my case, I have been able to duplicate, both with braille and speech,
virtually all the features I used to know and love in Dos. It just takes a
little work to get things up and running right, that's all.
