Up to date Interactive Fiction apps?

[Orin]

Hey all,

Zoom is proving problematic for me. I can't open Blue Lacuna, nor can I open 
Flexible Survival or any other Inform game.

What is everyone using now under Lion?

this report makes me want to consider again taking the chance and putting 8 
gigs in my late 20009 Mac book.  I have the same issues that Lynne describes 
such as chattering in the voices when several applications are running.  yet 
Gordon's earlier comments about there being good reasons why one should follow 
the posted limits has me concerned.  I sure wish someone else would go first!

Re: Lion Mail, hiding read messages.

[Jon Cohn]

 This is one of the things you could do with "smart mailboxes".  Personally,  I 
set up an Address Book group called Interesting People, and then created a 
smart Mail box folder that includes all unread e-mail from the interesting 
people address group.

Best regards,

XCode issue navigator.

[Geoff Waaler]

Greetings all,

I'm hoping that someone out there has played with xCode and has a little time 
to address a few novice questions.

I was trying to ascertain whether the IOS simulator is accessible;  the sample 
MoveMe project described in Apple's "creating an iPhone application" tutorial 
apparently employs a lot of animation.  I thought a plane text example might be 
a better test for the simulator, so to that end I attempted to build this 
HelloWorld project.

I was traversing the issue navigator to correct my errors, but it seems that 
either I've not figured out a few things, or that all the tools to make the 
development environment easier actually serves the opposite purpose for VO 
users.

One error indicated that an interface was missing and asked whether I meant 
"HelloWorld" instead of "helloWorld".  I saw an option labeled "fix it", but 
couldn't seem to select it.  More over there didn't seem to be any easy way to 
get to the offending line except to find it via project navigator.

One of my errors was "no declaration of property viewcontroler found in the 
interface.  When I interacted there was no way to read the name of the property 
to determine whether there was a case mismatch or a proceeding dash, etc.  I 
could have copied the last phrase to my clipboard or changed to spell mode, but 
assume there must be an easier way to read the name of the offending property 
or jump to the line in question?

TIA for any suggestions.
Geoff

hiden partitions. The size of the drive is consistent with what it is
advertised as.

Really? I've had nothing but good luck in the 4 years I've used western
digital drives. I own 3 of them now actually. Also I don't remember seeing
hidden partition. I just reformatted the whole thing when I got it and that
was that.  Now the other drive you mentioned. all of those I had died with
in a year of my buying them and I lost a lot of stuff so for me the western
digital drives are what I use and hopefully unless something comes along
that's better is what I will continue to use. My studio is very quiet
because of them.

Hi Everyone!

So you do your grocery shopping every week and you want to be absolutely organized? Then 
here's the best app I've seen to help you "organize" your shopping and its free!

Note that the Woolworths app is only available in Australia as far as I know.

This app does everything you'd expect a shoppers helper to do and far more.  
Firstly, it can locate your nearest store and thus will display the local 
stores product catalogue and appropriate weekly specials if any, you can then 
browse all of these and add what you want to your shopping list where you can 
edit, manipulate by increasing or decreasing the amount of an item or items 
required, email your list to someone or an address in your contacts list etc.

The app is fully accessible with Voiceover with plenty of help screens and tips 
available should you find yourself lost in the software.

The app tells in where to find items, for example if you add a kilo of apples 
to your shopping list of a particular type, the Woolworths app will tell you in 
what row to look and this is displayed in your shopping list so you can send 
someone down to the supermarket and they'll know exactly where to find an item.

Have some products in your pan tree you wish to order again but can't remember 
what the label says so you've no idea what to search for? No problem, the 
Woolworths app has an in-built bar code scanner, take the product from the pan 
tree, scan the bar code and the app will identify the product where upon you 
can add it to your shopping list.

I see wonderful potential for this app and full marks to the developers for 
what they've achieved with the app thus far, pity you can't order a delivery 
but perhaps that will come in the future.

In short 2 words sum up my feelings regarding the Woolworths App, "Most 
Impressive".

Re: turn off the lights

[Caitlyn Furness]

I can help with this.. turn off the lights is a safari extention.  I have it on 
my mac, too, because I clicked on it when I was trying to install click to 
flash and hit that one instead, so maybe Mark did the same thing.

Further to this, how in the world do you remove extentions you try and then 
don't want anymore, anybody know?

thanks,

Hello,

GH Accessibility, ReadHear

[Gordon Smith]

Hi all

Anybody else using ReadHear by any chance? Lynne bought me a copy of this a 
while ago, despite its very inflated price tab. :)

What I'm wondering is whether there's an option to globally modify the location 
of items in your DAISY library.  At the moment I'm having to remove each and 
every entry individually and then re-allocate them in the new location.  I 
always thought that the purpose of having a library was to make things easier.  
But it seems that in this case that's not necessarily always the way it is.  
For example, I would have thought there would be a "Search" facility to find a 
book or item title.  But it seems not.  I did suggest this to the developers 
quite a long time ago but nothing has come of it.

Yes, I know that there is the free "Olaria" DAISY player for OSX but the 
problem with that app is that it doesn't allow you to maintain a library, nor, 
unless I'm missing something, doe it allow you to bookmark your position and 
return to the bookmarks position next session.

I have to admit that I like the convenience of having all my books in a 
library.  But the inability to do a search is a bit odd.  Yes, I know you can 
find a book by typing in the first few letters of its title.  But having the 
ability to search the library based on keywords from the book's description, 
author, title and other metadata would be nice.

Re: Overlapping windows

[Gordon Smith]

Hello Colin

I appreciate your efforts here but what you need to keep in mind is that VO is 
not resident when this is happening.  Therefore, the VO commands are, as I said 
in a previous message, not relevant.

This has something to do with OSX and nothing whatsoever to do with VoiceOver.  
Yes, I know that the sticklers are going to come back to me now and say "what 
does this have to do with accessibility then, it's off topic".  Actually it 
isn't, it's still an OSX related issue and the list policy says "With an 
emphasis on, although not necessarily restricted to, accessibility".

So unfortunately the VO commands won't help in this instance Colin.  I have to 
admit I'm finding this issue very frustrating as it's preventing me from moving 
things on.  Lynne should be home around 19:00 but whether she feels like 
messing around with this is another matter.  The problem is basically that the 
Finder window is sitting on top of the window we need to use. What we're trying 
to do is drag a certificate file from the desktop over to the admin programme 
but as long as the two windows overlap I don't see how we can.

Naturally, the Finder window has to be there.  As does the other one.  So I am 
stumped.  But I stress again, VoiceOver doesn't come into this, as it isn't 
even in use at the time.  VO doesn't even see the boxes I need to use.  
Apparently you can achieve the same import results via the Terminal. But I 
haven't made much progress with the Man pages.

Again, I appreciate the suggestions people are making here.

There is the move window command vo+` this does imply you should be able to

I do not know if the commands to move items to different parts of the main

Re: Review: WD My Passport Essential portable hard drive

[Gordon Smith]

Hello Sarah

We have a couple of these things and, to be honest, they're really nothing 
special. We've also had more trouble with WD drives than any other computing 
component. Seagate drives are faster, slicker, more reliable and more Mac 
compatible.

The thing I hate about the WD drives is that there's always a hidden partition 
on them which you can't re-format. Horrible!

Review: WD My Passport Essential portable hard drive

The My Passport Essential gives you plenty of hard drive space in a compact and 
lightweight device, making it much more convenient to keep your important 
information as close as your pocket.

Regarding the delivery of groceries which the online Woolworths store

and yep, they're working on integrating  the online store with the app but there's 
one big problem Woolworths has to address, the app deals with the local store in your 
area - as determined by your GPS location - and the online business is a totally 
separate game so I guess we can only wait to see what happens.

Hi Everyone!

So you do your grocery shopping every week and you want to be absolutely organized? Then 
here's the best app I've seen to help you "organize" your shopping and its free!

Note that the Woolworths app is only available in Australia as far as I know.

This app does everything you'd expect a shoppers helper to do and far more.  
Firstly, it can locate your nearest store and thus will display the local 
stores product catalogue and appropriate weekly specials if any, you can then 
browse all of these and add what you want to your shopping list where you can 
edit, manipulate by increasing or decreasing the amount of an item or items 
required, email your list to someone or an address in your contacts list etc.

The app is fully accessible with Voiceover with plenty of help screens and tips 
available should you find yourself lost in the software.

The app tells in where to find items, for example if you add a kilo of apples 
to your shopping list of a particular type, the Woolworths app will tell you in 
what row to look and this is displayed in your shopping list so you can send 
someone down to the supermarket and they'll know exactly where to find an item.

Have some products in your pan tree you wish to order again but can't remember 
what the label says so you've no idea what to search for? No problem, the 
Woolworths app has an in-built bar code scanner, take the product from the pan 
tree, scan the bar code and the app will identify the product where upon you 
can add it to your shopping list.

I see wonderful potential for this app and full marks to the developers for 
what they've achieved with the app thus far, pity you can't order a delivery 
but perhaps that will come in the future.

In short 2 words sum up my feelings regarding the Woolworths App, "Most 
Impressive".

Re: Shopping Apps For Iphone/Ipad

HI.

did that, still can't see a price. just see increase quantity, decrease 
quantity, a disclaimer button and where it's found in the store.  I'm 
guessing maybe prices aren't included in the main product list because 
they differ slightly in the country.

stores product catalogue and appropriate weekly specials if any, you can then 
browse all of these and add what you want to your shopping list where you can 
edit, manipulate by increasing or decreasing the amount of an item or items 
required, email your list to someone or an address in your contacts list etc.

The app is fully accessible with Voiceover with plenty of help screens and tips 
available should you find yourself lost in the software.

The app tells in where to find items, for example if you add a kilo of apples 
to your shopping list of a particular type, the Woolworths app will tell you in 
what row to look and this is displayed in your shopping list so you can send 
someone down to the supermarket and they'll know exactly where to find an item.

Have some products in your pan tree you wish to order again but can't remember 
what the label says so you've no idea what to search for? No problem, the 
Woolworths app has an in-built bar code scanner, take the product from the pan 
tree, scan the bar code and the app will identify the product where upon you 
can add it to your shopping list.

I see wonderful potential for this app and full marks to the developers for 
what they've achieved with the app thus far, pity you can't order a delivery 
but perhaps that will come in the future.

In short 2 words sum up my feelings regarding the Woolworths App, "Most 
Impressive".

Re: Overlapping windows

[Randy Stegall]

Gordon,

That is what I thought.  I have enough vision to tell that something is going 
on on the display but can't read the print unless vo or zoom is turned on.  I 
take it that your assistant can't drag the offending window to one side of the 
screen and the window he needs to work in to the opposite side?

Re: accessible mud cliants for mac

[Nicolai Svendsen]

Hi Collin,

I've actually tracked down at least 15 clients for the Mac. I haven't had a 
chance to try all of them, but I saw a page listing them all. I had it 
bookmarked, but my bookmarks have become scrambled, so I'll have to dig it up. 
However, a simple Google Search will find it, too, if you're so inclined. Some 
of them are not being developed anymore, but some of them are.

Atlantis is actually very accessible, however because it uses Growl, it tends 
to speak messages as they appear and not in any orderly fashion, especially if 
you use the Speech display. That is the only real downside, though this is a 
general downside to Growl if you do use the Speech display.

Regards,
Nic

Re: Overlapping windows

[Gordon Smith]

Hi Randy

You can't do this with VoiceOver, that's the whole point.  VO doesn't even see 
the relevant boxers.

So no Vo solution is going to work I'm afraid.

You have to literally drag & drop them using the trackpad.  VoiceOver has to be 
turned off at the time or it gets in the way.

Re: Overlapping windows

[Gordon Smith]

Hi Colin

No, I don't think you quite understand.  I'm not talking about moving through 
the windows, that's easy.  The problem is that the person who is trying to help 
me can't visually see the items he needs to be able to see because there are 
apparently windows overlying windows.  This has absolutely nothing to do with 
VoiceOver. In fact, VO isn't even running at the time.

Thanks for the attempt though.

Gordon

Re: Overlapping windows

Hi Gordon!
I do not know if this will help or indeed if you've already tried it!
But command+` will cycle through windows!And I suppose you've also tried vo+f2 
f2 on american layouts ` is next to the number 1 but on mine [and should be on 
yours] to the left of Z
And of course I'm still on SL and not a server! :]

Re: Shopping Apps For Iphone/Ipad

[Dane Trethowan]

Yep, just for Woolworths as far as I know.

Regarding the delivery of groceries which the online Woolworths store at 
 handles, I rang their customer support today and 
yep, they're working on integrating  the online store with the app but there's 
one big problem Woolworths has to address, the app deals with the local store 
in your area - as determined by your GPS location - and the online business is 
a totally separate game so I guess we can only wait to see what happens.

Re: Overlapping windows

[Gordon Smith]

Hello Randy

The software is Apple's Server admin tool, but the Finder or something is 
getting in the way.  It's irritating because obviously VoiceOver doesn't care 
where the windows are.

Hi Everyone!

So you do your grocery shopping every week and you want to be absolutely organized? Then 
here's the best app I've seen to help you "organize" your shopping and its free!

Note that the Woolworths app is only available in Australia as far as I know.

This app does everything you'd expect a shoppers helper to do and far more.  
Firstly, it can locate your nearest store and thus will display the local 
stores product catalogue and appropriate weekly specials if any, you can then 
browse all of these and add what you want to your shopping list where you can 
edit, manipulate by increasing or decreasing the amount of an item or items 
required, email your list to someone or an address in your contacts list etc.

The app is fully accessible with Voiceover with plenty of help screens and tips 
available should you find yourself lost in the software.

The app tells in where to find items, for example if you add a kilo of apples 
to your shopping list of a particular type, the Woolworths app will tell you in 
what row to look and this is displayed in your shopping list so you can send 
someone down to the supermarket and they'll know exactly where to find an item.

Have some products in your pan tree you wish to order again but can't remember 
what the label says so you've no idea what to search for? No problem, the 
Woolworths app has an in-built bar code scanner, take the product from the pan 
tree, scan the bar code and the app will identify the product where upon you 
can add it to your shopping list.

I see wonderful potential for this app and full marks to the developers for 
what they've achieved with the app thus far, pity you can't order a delivery 
but perhaps that will come in the future.

In short 2 words sum up my feelings regarding the Woolworths App, "Most 
Impressive".

Overlapping windows

[Gordon Smith]

hi all

I'm having a bit of a problem, wonder if anybody can help.  I'm trying to get 
somebody with vision to give me a hand to import some certificate files.  You 
need to drag & drop these files into two boxes within the software but the 
problem is that there seem to be windows on top of windows and we cannot move 
them so that the boxes are clearly visible.

I'm a bit confused because the only thing I have open is the Finder, but my 
helper still insists that he can't see the windows properly.  Any thoughts and 
suggestions as to how to shift these would be appreciated.

Gordon
