Hi, I believe xcode has fairly good support for Ruby on Rails and is meant to be reasonably accessible with VoiceOver.
I work as as a web application developer using the Apple WebObjects framework, the recommended development environment for which is Eclipse. Unfortunately at this time Eclipse still has some major issues working with VoiceOver, so I am using a Windows virtual machine on my macbook to do most of my WebObjects development. The other two major IDEs for Java web dev, being Netbeans and IntelliJ are not usable with VoiceOver at this time, however they aren't really usable with any of the Windows screen readers either to my knowledge. You're best bet might be using vi, if you don't require a full featured IDE. I hope this helps. Cheers, Mitch ----- Original Message ----- From: John W.

Mostly on IBM mainframe, cobol/cics. Over the past few years I've been struggling to make the leap to a web application environment and I find using ms development tools with pc screen readers less then satisfying. I seem to spend more time frustrating myself trying to write jaws scripts than I do developingapplications. I've been reading this list for a couple of weeks and I'm considering making the leap from windows to a mac. Are there any web programmers out there using VO? What development tools are you using and how well does VO operate? I'd be very interested to hear your experience.
