Re: [Mac-access]: Accessibility: Setting up a mailing listserv

Re: [Mac-access]: Get Backup Pro is a solid backup utility for Macs

Yes, I have friends who have done this, but they also have other reasons to run virtual machines. Yes, I also have to run Win7 in a VM for several tasks, so the better terminal support and a good linux screenreader is not the only reason for VMware Fusion on my Mac OS host system :-). I use this aproach at the moment because of the mensioned problems with VO in the terminal, it works good for me, but ofcourse it would be better not to use a vm. Yes, unless you're doing it for other reasons of course. Apparently, BRLTTY can also be made to work in a virtual machine under OS X. Furthermore,,, you can run Linux directly on some Mac hardware, dual-booted with OS X or by completely replacing OS X with Linux. I've never tried this, but I've read about it. Yes, I know of all that possebilities, but for me one reason to use Mac OS was that it is a stable and modern system with good screen reader support for the graphical environment, which is much better then the support for graphic mode in linux with gnome and orca. Aditionaly I hoped that also the terminal can be used without big problems, I'm administrating many linux systems in my job and I have to do many tasks via shell, but unfortunatly there are the problems we allready discussed before :-(. Better terminal support with VoiceOver would be great, then Mac OS would be the perfect system for my needs...

Adding the following line to your ~/.muttrc file might help: set braille_friendly=yes Mutt doesn't use a soft-cursor by default anyway. I'm not sure if this setting for mutt will help. From the mutt manual: - 3.23. braille_friendly Type: boolean Default: no When this variable is set, mutt will place the cursor at the beginning of the current line in menus, even when the $arrow_cursor variable is unset, making it easier for blind persons using Braille displays to follow these menus. The option is unset by default because many visual terminals don't permit making the cursor invisible. - The problem isn't the not displayed cursor, but that VO does not track the cursor in some situations. For example, if you are in the message list and press / to search a particular message, VO keeps focusing the selected message in the list and does not jump to the bottom of the screen into the field where the searchterm can be inserted. I'll try the mutt setting, maybe it helps, but I believe it will not :-(. And ofcourse that will not change the problem with the lines that are not read corect in editors or in the shell.

Re: App to organise notes?
Hi, take a look at Notebooks 7, that app is very good to use with VoiceOver. Maybe this is what you are looking for. there is also a Notebooks app for mac OS and the content can be synced between several systems, but unfortunatly the Mac OS app isn't accessible yet. I spoke with the developper and he has fixed many things regarding VoiceOver for the iOS app in the past, but the Mac version is quite new and VoiceOver support is one of the things he like to improove in the future, but after also a Notebooks version for Windows has been released. ciao, Christian On Di, Mai 20, 2014 at 09:47:16 +0100, Catherine Turner wrote: Hi, Has anyone got any favourite apps for organizing notes?

What specifically are you having trouble doing? Perhaps there's something that could be done to make your usability better.

For example if I'm using the editor vim, the cursor is not reading the actual line in many situations, and this behaviour I also have in other editors. Or if I like to use the textbased mailprogram mutt, which is my favorite mailprogram under linux, also the cursor is not tracked in the list view with the mails. It seems like cursor tracking, especialy softcursortracking, is not possible in the terminal, but to use textbased programs that have menues etc., softcursortracking is mandatory. Maybe I have a wrong setup and something can be optimized by making the right settings for the terminal app or VoiceOver, but everything I found in the web or I've asked in some lists regarding this issue did not help :-(.

How to make screenshots ona a Mac as a blind person?
Hi, I’d sometimes like to make screenshots on my Mac to include them in blog posts, for example if I describe how to perform some usefull things with Mac OS. I know of cmd + shift + 3 to make a screenshot that will be stored on the desktop, but are there any other usefull possibilities to create screenshots as a blind person with VoiceOver? Is it possible somehow to select the size and the part of the screen to include in the screenshot for example?

Hi Sean, Am 21.02.2014 um 22:37 schrieb Sean Murphy smur7...@bigpond.net.au: does any one here know how to modify the firewall at the command line? Under 10.9 OS X, you are meant to use pfctl. The firewall feature in preferences does not give you enough control. So if someone has done this, I would love to hear from you. Also has anyone done Natting (network address translation) or PAT (port address translation) at the command line. Again this is meant to be done via pfctl. Take a look at the app IceFloor, this might be what you are looking for :-). The app is a more flexible firewall and frontend for the ipfilter commandline tools shipped with Mac OS.

Re: Assistance with the Calibre E-Book Library
Hi James and all, to convert a book from a format to another with the Calibre command line tools, do the following: 1. Open a terminal. 2. Insert the following command to convert a book from one format into another, but be sure to use the right file suffix for the source and destination file. and keep in mind the upper and lower case letters in the command, MacOS isn’t case insensitive in the terminal. The ebook-convert command recognizes the source and destination format via the file suffix which is given in the command. So use the following command to convert an epub file into a pdf: /Applications/calibre.app/Contents/MacOS/ebook-convert file.epub file.pdf To convert a pdf into an epub just tell the command the source and destination format via the file suffixes: /Applications/calibre.app/Contents/MacOS/ebook-convert file.pdf file.epub The source file will not be overwritten and the command examples above will search the source file in your home directory and the destination file will be stored also in the home dir.

Cheers, Chris Am 01.12.2013 um 03:29 schrieb Dane Trethowan grtd...@internode.on.net: Hi! you probably know all this already but I thought what you said about SSL/TLS and GPG was interesting so here's something from another System Administrator I know which makes it sound that both systems can be used with great effect together. snip SSL stands for secure sockets layer, it is a technology used to encrypt an end to end connection between two machines. When you encrypt an email using pgp, its hidden from anyone who doesn't have the appropriate decryption key. When you connect to a website (or email server) using ssl, only that connection is encrypted, if the original email is unencrypted, and sent on by whatever server you delivered it to, its unencrypted for that part of the journey as well as when it arrives at the recipiant. So, you would use pgp when you want to guarantee that an email can only be decrypted by the recipiant. You would use ssl (or tls these days) when you want a connection between you and a remote machine to be secure from evesdropping by people along the way. snip On 30 Nov 2013, at 10:59 pm, Gordon Smith gor...@mac-access.net wrote: I’ve often thought about getting back into that but I’ve decide that SSL authentication certificates offer a better alternative for mail.

Installing voices from 10.8 into 10.9
Hi, in Mac OS 10.8 there was a German voice called Steffi. This voice is not longer shipped with 10.9 unfortunatly, its only available if an update from an older Mac OS version to 10.9 has been done. If 10.9 hjas been installed from scratch, no Steffi can be selected :-(. No I wonder if it would be possible to bring Steffi from a 10.8 system to an 10.9 installation? Ofcourse it would be possible to install 10.8 first, set Steffi as default voice and after that do an update to 10.9, but the better solution would be to get the necesary things from an old 10.8 installation and integrate them into a 10.9 system manualy. Does anybody know if this is possible and what steps are necesary? I want Steffi back :-)!

Re: Looking for a accessible password manager
Hi, as mensioned earlier in this thread I was looking for a solution to handle my passwords and other account data across all my systems (Mac OS, Windows, iOS). 1Password seems to be a good commercial solution to do this, but I think I've found a free and Opensource solution now that is also save, easy to use and has nearly the same features as 1Password. I now use KeePass on Windows, MiniKeePass on my iOS devices and KyPass Companion on Mac OS to handle all my data stored in a crypted database, which is stored in Dropbox. The programs for Mac and Windows can open this database directly, because the Dropbox client is running on this platforms, on the iOS devices the database has to be imported via the Dropbox app if the file was changed on the other systems.

But IceFloor is much more flexible and many more things are possible as it is with the integrated firewall. With some inclouded tools you can also see which connections your Mac has opened, parse the firewall logs, count your incomming and outgoing traffic, etc. IceFloor is opensource, you can get it for free and it is perfectly useable with VoiceOver :-).

Questions regarding Nisus Writer Pro
Hi, after trying arround for a few days to format a document (Vitae Cursus) with Latex I have to say, that a simple text processing programm for the Mac would be really nice :-). I used Latex some times in the past to write normal texts and letters and that worked fine, but for a document which is structured with many tables and contains a picture, my knowletge of Latex isn't enough. Also the output has to be reviewed by a sighted person, because many things can went wrong and formating is broken :-(. Now I wonder, if there is a textprocessing software for the Mac out there which can be used without big barrieres with VoiceOver? I've heard that Nisus Writer Pro is good to use, but how about tables for examble? Tables are not accessible in apples writer, is this better with the Nisus Writer? Can I controll the format of a document or do I also have to ask a sighted person after I've finished work if the look of the document is OK? I do not need to create complicated documents, no need for foodnotes and such things, but headlines, lists and tables should work.

Re: Nisus writer pro
Hi Paula and all, On So, Apr 28, 2013 at 01:21:25 +1000, Paula Hobley wrote: I was looking at Nisus Writer Pro. I see that it is crazily expensive. I was wondering if anybody thinks it is worth the price in terms of VO access to formatting options and tables etc. Any input will be greatly appreciated. In a German Apple community some people are very happy with this app. VO access seems to be no problem in general, but some parts need to be improved. I'm not using the app but I've heard that some formating tasks for texts are possible and better to handle then in Pages for example. If you like I can give you the contact data of a user that comes from Germany, but he lives in Ireland for some years and should be able to explain things about Nisus Writer much better then I can do with my ppor English. He uses the app for some weeks now and he is very happy with it.

Hi, I have a disk video recorder running on my NAS. The video recorder stores the recordings in MPEG II format. Now I am looking for a software, that can exctract the audio channel out of the MPEG II files, the best would be to have the audio output in m4a or mp3 format.

Re: MacBook Air: Light, flexible and simply beautiful!
Hi, I brefere the Macboo, Pro, because some hardware can be replaced without problems. For example I've replaced the hard disk by a flash drive from Samsung, which was much cheeper then the flash drive Apple puts into the Macbook. With an Air no manual hardware replacement is possible. But both devicees are nice, no question :-).

Re: Using VoiceOver in the terminal
Hi Ester and Travis, On Mi, Apr 10, 2013 at 11:56:38 -1000, Esther wrote: Travis has already replied to you about searching the archives for posts on using terminal. I'll give you a direct link to one of his archived posts that gives a pretty complete explanation of how to configure terminal, since it dates from before this list started using the Mail-Archive web site with its easier search interface. Thanks Ester and Travis for your hints and tips that brought me into the right direction. I'll play around with the different terminal settings but a quick check yesterday evening wasn't really successfull and not really satisfactory for me needs :-(. Most time I'm working with a linux system and a screenreader called sbl. In this environment cursortracking and speech output is much better then I was able to get with my first tests with the Mac terminal. But I'll try on and see whats possible, because having a good graphical and a nice textbased environment on the same system and use the best things of both worlds at the same time and in one environment would be really great and this is not possible with linux at present, I think.

Using a usb braille device in a virtual machine
Hi, has anyone had success to use a USB braille device in a virtual machine running in VMWare Fusion? I tried to setup my braille device in a virtual machine with Debian linux but I was not able to connect the device with the VM. I do not know what the problem is, sometimes a error message was displayed taht said something like that the device is allready in use on the host system (maybe because VoiceOver was also using the braille device), but most of my tries no error came up. Has anyone used a USB braille device in a VM before?

Using VoiceOver in the terminal
Hi all, I'm Christian from Munich and I've subscribed to this helpfull list some days ago. I'm using a Mac Book 13 from 2011 with Mountain Lion and a iPhone 4. At work I do not use products from Apple, I'm a system administrator working for the city of Munich and most of our 450 servers, that are needed for the schools in Munich, are running with Linux or Solaris. On the workstation either Linux or Windows is installed. Allthough VO is good when using the graphical environment of Mac OS, it is very basic in the textbased terminal. I wonder if there are any tricks or settings that improve the usage of the terminal? I've to administrator some servers via ssh and I'd like also to use some textbased tools on the Mac, so any tip that makes the work in the terminal better would be very apriciated. Maybe it is possible some days that I can use a Mac for my job, but because most of my work is done on linux shells and therefore in a textbased environment it would be very difficult at the moment :-(.
