A few notes for those who haven't tried this yet: 1. The graphical (i.e., Cocoa) version of Emacs 24.3 is not accessible with VoiceOver. I can run emacs.app, but VoiceOver only identifies the name of the Emacs buffer. It can't access the text or the echo area of the editor window, for example.
2. Emacs in a terminal is relatively accessible with VoiceOver. (I need this for the benefit of my braille display, hence the interest.) My next step will be to try to get Emacspeak to run, once I've installed the prerequisites and dealt with any problems that arise. 3. If you're using Emacs in a terminal, you have to open the terminal preferences, choose the keyboard tab, and select the checkbox to use the option key as the meta key. Otherwise, pressing the option key in combination with other keys will insert characters into your text instead of invoking Emacs commands. <--- Mac Access At Mac Access Dot Net ---> To reply to this post, please address your message to mac-access@mac-access.net You can find an archive of all messages posted to the Mac-Access forum at either the list's own dedicated web archive: <http://mail.tft-bbs.co.uk/pipermail/mac-access/index.html> or at the public Mail Archive: <http://www.mail-archive.com/mac-access@mac-access.net/>.
