Hi! I had asked Marcus a few months ago, as I had responded before yours came in. The MSAA is like Linux's Emac speak and such. The screen reader is built into most Linux now, not in widnows.
I will let Marcus take a look at it and maybe explain it to you when he gets a chance to understand what is going on. At the moment I am able to use the tts for sound along with home-made wav files. It would be nice to be able to use all the tts engines at will and choice, but to get the commands and docs is part of the problem. I finished a version of Battleship, the old game used with a 9X9 grid to find and destroy enemy ships. I have not added the computer version, just 2 player at the moment. So the only part of pygame I use is the key event and sound events. Bruce There are no plans to do any accessibility features for pygame, that I am aware of. Given that pygame doesn't actually provide any specific features to help developers with buttons or other UI elements, it's not clear to me what pygame should or could do to make such things more accessible. If you have specific ideas for accessibility features, feel free to share them. If there was a developer who could serve as a mentor, accessibility features could possibly be a google summer of code project.
