Re: Making table of contents, and splitting to sections?

[Tyler Thompson]

Have you considered something like iBooks Author to make an ePub? I know it’s 
not an answer to your exact question but I suspect a good chunk of the 
functionality you want is pretty baked in.

Re: remotely controlling another Mac

[Tyler Thompson]

Apple Remote Desktop does exist. There’s been tons of mixed reviews on it. If 
you’ve got the command-line experience SSH is what I’d recommend.

Re: FTP Server.

[Tyler Thompson]

Apple has decided to stop supporting FTP because it is miserably insecure. You 
can enable SFTP easily by turning on "remote login" in your sharing preferences.

If for some reason you're genuinely forced to use FTP (again, not recommended) 
there may be a linux-style FTP server floating around in homebrew. A cursory 
glance suggests there are several.

If you're transferring files on a local network there are plenty of other 
options as well.

Re: Adding carriage returns to text file

[Tyler Thompson]

You could also use regular expressions in a wide variety of text editors to 
replace all \n characters (newline) with \r\n (basically the carriage return 
you were looking for)

Re: Multiple Devices for Audio Output

There's a way to create an audio MIDI device that talks to specific ports. I'm 
not able to give an exact link or instructions at the moment but look into your 
audio midi setup it's in the same folder (other) as tools like the activity

Re: VNC on mac OSX

[Tyler Thompson]

Ultimately you would have to use the remote machines screen reader. 
Unfortunately VNC does not support audio. You might be able to rig up some 
bizarre setup where you transmit audio over SSH and let VNC capture keyboard 
commands but you may have better luck with something like teamviewer

Re: iMud (an accessible macOS MUD/MUSH client)

[Tyler Thompson]

Short answer: Lua is Lua, never mind the O.S. so it’s possible, but not yet 
supported. 

Long answer: I’d love to make that work. This is the very reason I’ve reached 
out to others, I’d have to build a smart parser to strip away the MUSH-Z added 
Lua functions (or hack into the Lua interpreter to add them myself) but it’s 
within the realm of possibility. I’d love to support MUSH plugins as well.

might be a good place to start. As far as what iMud currently offers over 
telnet Devin pretty much hit the nail on the head, sound support is a big 
feature. iMud also has both a custom scripting language and mildly supports Lua 
as a scripting language so that you can automate some features. So triggers, 
timers, delays, aliases, variables (macros coming soon)

Some minor details exist now to that you may or may not like, for example you 
can log output from the MUD with a timestamp, you can have custom aliases, you 
can gag (or simply not display) certain spammy/repeated text.

There’s a lot of features planned down the road, some are certainly 
accessibility based some are merely useful but I don’t want to promise and then 
not deliver so I’ll keep quiet for now. 

Oh! Last thing, iMud supports several MUD protocols already (MSP, MSDP 
(mildly), MSSP, MCCP(soon), GMCP(soon)) those protocols are used by both iMud 
and the MUD server, which means using only telnet you’re actually missing out 
on features that the game wants to try and supply (MCCP for example is a 
compression protocol good for slow connections)

For those of you testing this out just remember, it’s in beta :) (to start iMud 
accessibility type OPTION+COMMAND+A)

iMud (an accessible macOS MUD/MUSH client)

[Tyler Thompson]

Hey Everybody,

Quite some time ago I made a MUD client for OS X, it was alright but 
promptly quit working with the advent of swift and apples usual deprecation of 
code.

I’ve recently restarted the iMud project (Beta available at 
http://www.asid.us#software ) and have gotten to 
a comfortable enough place. It has the usual, triggers, timers, aliases, 
delays, MSP (provided it’s server-side, client-side coming soon). It does 
support Lua to an extent and it’s all written in swift 3. This client will only 
work on the latest macOS (sierra), this is intentional, trying to support 
legacy operating systems is what got me in trouble lsat time.
 
If anybody is interested in beta testing the client give it a download 
and send me a message to let me know what you think. If anybody is interested 
in helping code iMud I have a plethora of ideas and would welcome the help (you 
must know swift). Finally if anybody is interested in learning to code and you 
think a partially constructed MUD client might be a cool way to go feel free to 
message me.

Re: 5/12/16

[Tyler Thompson]

primarily yes, but since IPs aren’t always static and reverse DNS is easily 
spoofable there are some that do use exact message makeup from a blacklist and 
others that do phrase matching, not saying all work the same however. That 
being said if I was going to phish for a password I might send out a couple 
thousand properly spelled ones and then keep shifting typos and cycling through 
my available IPs through different proxy servers.

frequently, poor grammar isn’t just a result of not knowing english correctly 
but also an attempt to get past your spam filter, which, clearly worked.

Re: Any comments on Apple's position against unreasonable search

[Tyler Thompson]

Apple already engineered products so that this cannot happen. That’s kind of 
the point. They already use a strong encryption, so strong in fact, that our 
government can’t break into them. Passwords are already hashed, Data is already 
encrypted as much as is legal (yes, there are illegal encryptions because 
they’re too strong). The U.S. government is asking them to redesign iOS so that 
these security measures go away.

Re: Any comments on Apple's position against unreasonable search

[Tyler Thompson]

Call me overly optimistic but considering that apple is one of the richest 
companies in the world with a billion dollars in just cash right now I don’t 
really believe their stance is on the money. I honestly believe it’s about 
security. Someone had posited earlier that agreeing to create this backdoor 
will somehow enhance their security. I respectfully disagree.

Devices that are not up to date still have the old key hard-coded into memory. 
This means that when a new version of iOS comes out (possibly using a new key 
since the FBI ruined the old one) all devices that are not up to date will 
immediately become not just vulnerable, but extremely vulnerable. While iOS has 
an astonishing adoption rate that’s still around 25% of iOS users who will have 
vulnerable devices.

My sincere hope is, as someone else had mentioned that Apple battle it to the 
supreme court, and if they do lose I hope they pack up their HQ and move it 
outside of the US. You’ve all probably seen the quote but it’s worth repeating: 
"Those who would give up essential Liberty, to purchase a little temporary 
Safety, deserve neither Liberty nor Safety.” - Benjamin Franklin

Re: Any comments on Apple's position against unreasonable search

[Tyler Thompson]

How exactly is this on topic? I was under the impression the discussion was 
about whether apple should cave to the FBI’s demands. For the sake of a 
reasonable, clean debate on the subject I’d like to ask we avoid religious and 
political beliefs. The question is a simple one, what do we think of the 
concept, is it a dangerous security breach or is it fine to let the FBI force 
apple to create this backdoor.

Donald Trump, god and immigration are completely irrelevant.

Re: Any comments on Apple's position against unreasonable search

[Tyler Thompson]

It’s a pipe dream. Without going into crazy technical detail you’re talking 
about either bypassing or giving up their cryptographic private key, the moment 
you do that it’s all over, for 1 device or for a million devices. Unlike, say, 
a firewall where you can open a port to 1 specific device based on MAC address, 
let it get it’s information then close it off again. This is a different 
concept.

Re: Any comments on Apple's position against unreasonable search

[Tyler Thompson]

So I feel it’s about time to throw in my 2 cents here. I’m a Certified Ethical 
Hacker and I’ve got qualifications and certifications in regards to 
cryptography, steganography and cyber security. I don’t bring this up to brag 
but instead to outline that I’m speaking from a place of experience. In this 
letter  to us, the customers Tim Cook 
does a decent job of outlining the issue.

I can say with 100% certainty that by creating access to a single phone apple 
will significantly reduce it’s ability to protect your data, and, what’s worse 
they’ll give that access to the FBI. There’s no such thing as a backdoor into 1 
device. One of the most potent security measures, and one that Apple has 
implemented is to ensure that nobody again nobody has access to secured data, 
including Apple themselves. When I’m contracted out to build secure apps or 
websites I do the same thing, for example, once a password has been created for 
a user I do not, and cannot ever gain access to that users account.

In order to build a “backdoor” you have to build it into the operating system. 
This means every iOS operating system would become vulnerable to both malicious 
hackers and our government. But let me give it to you in an analogy: Imagine 
that the iPhone is your home. Now imagine that your home is in a bad 
neighborhood and is a high-profile home. So the FBI comes along and asks you to 
please smash out one of your own windows in broad daylight. When you say it 
lowers the security of your home the answer is “Well it’s ok, thieves in the 
area don’t know which window you smashed out.”

I’ve been a very avid Apple fan for years now, I love their accessibility, I 
love their products but knowing about cyber security I can guarantee you right 
now that if they build this backdoor I will immediately stop using apple 
products.

You want one even scarier? Think about a backdoor to an operating system that 
houses your credit card info for Apple Pay. That’s not enough for you? What 
about your keychain? You know, the one where you store all your passwords for 
things like your bank account. 

We can say “Surely you can just do it this once” all we want to but I’m here to 
tell you there’s no such thing. Once you’ve lowered your security it’s done and 
the product will never be as secure again.

Re: Malware

[Tyler Thompson]

So the good news is that you’re being very prudent. More good news is that you 
do not have malware. These websites are made to target gullible people. They’re 
designed to look and feel exactly like some kind of anti-virus but what most 
people aren’t aware of is that it’s not possible for a website to remotely scan 
your machine in such a manner to even find viruses for you. This isn’t malware 
it’s just targeted advertising. As long as you have at least 1 working 
anti-virus on your mac don’t worry, and if safari is what gives you a message 
simply ignore it. You don’t care what safari says, you only care what your 
anti-virus says.

Re: A Question to A T & T Wireless Customers with an Unlimited Data Plan, Regarding WiFi Calling

[Tyler Thompson]

Hey Mark,

I’m grandfathered in to the same deal and am not able to get wi-fi 
calling or create a hotspot without losing my unlimited data. I think you’re 
sort of out of luck. My advice would definitely be don’t give up the deal. They 
may prohibit a couple of cool features but at the end of the day it’s really 
nice not having to worry about data usage.

Keystroke: A cross-platform typing program.

[Tyler Thompson]

Hello,

I’m aware that there are many people looking for an accessible typing 
program for the mac. I’m proud to say that today the agency I work for (The New 
Mexico Commission For The Blind) has released a cross-platform typing program 
called Keystroke. You can download it from our website here 
http://www.cfb.state.nm.us/Keystroke.html. It is in it’s early stages but has 
some promising results and as the developer I’d be willing to listen to any 
feature requests you all might have. Most importantly this software is now and 
always will be 100% free. I’ll outline some of it’s features below.


Keystroke works with various braille displays, making it one of the first 
typing programs that can be used with the deaf-blind (or non-native english 
speakers).
Default lessons that were built based on a lot of in-class research to give the 
best chance of learning to type correctly.
The ability to use the correct (left/right) shift keys.
Along with this Keystroke has the ability to make sure that students are using 
the caps lock key correct (thus eliminating the caps + letter + caps syndrome)
Completely customizable lessons (so you can add, or edit your own lessons to 
your hearts desire).
Along with this comes the “Lesson calculator” which is designed to give you 
feedback on your custom lessons, how complex they are, how long it’ll take a 
student to type them etc..)
The ability to import/export lessons. So if you create lessons you’d like to 
share or someone else has made some you think are cool it’s very easy to open 
them and use them with Keystroke.
Because of it’s compatibility with braille displays it can be used to test 
Braille writing speeds.
It learns from you as you type and gives useful feedback via the “Keyboard 
Assistant” (This can even provide directional feedback such as: “The j key is 2 
keys to the right”)
Designed to work natively with VoiceOver

Actually I’m quite proud of this, It works with the native screen reader. So it 
supports Window Eyes, JAWS and NVDA and communicates with them directly on a 
software level (no need for you to do much more than change the preferences of 
your screen reader)

It does work for Windows. In it’s current form I would say it’s more for adults 
(as in there’s not a lot “fun” about it yet) but I’ve already designed the 
first Keystroke game (which will come out in the next release of the windows 
and mac versions). And I sincerely hope as time goes on it’ll be for any age.

Re: Keystroke: A cross-platform typing program.

[Tyler Thompson]

The shift key actually does work, it’s just that Keystroke (customizable by the 
user preferences) expects you to use the correct shift (i.e. the left shift for 
keys in the right hand and the right shift for keys in the left hand).

Press COMMAND + , (command comma) to bring up the user preferences, navigate to 
the “Lesson” tab and uncheck “Require correct (left/right) shift keys” to 
disable this feature.

I had at one point worked on an accessible MUD client, it worked alright but 
didn’t use VoiceOver it just used a speech synthesizer. I abandoned the project 
after a while though as life got in the way.

 Hello,
 
   I’m aware that there are many people looking for an accessible 
 typing
 program for the mac. I’m proud to say that today the agency I work for
 (The New Mexico Commission For The Blind) has released a 
 cross-platform
 typing program called Keystroke. You can download it from our website 
 here
 http://www.cfb.state.nm.us/Keystroke.html. It is in it’s early 
 stages
 but has some promising results and as the developer I’d be willing to
 listen to any feature requests you all might have. Most importantly 
 this
 software is now and always will be 100% free. I’ll outline some of 
 it’s
 features below.
 
 
 Keystroke works with various braille displays, making it one of the 
 first
 typing programs that can be used with the deaf-blind (or non-native
 english speakers).
 Default lessons that were built based on a lot of in-class research to
 give the best chance of learning to type correctly.
 The ability to use the correct (left/right) shift keys.
 Along with this Keystroke has the ability to make sure that students 
 are
 using the caps lock key correct (thus eliminating the caps + letter + 
 caps
 syndrome)
 Completely customizable lessons (so you can add, or edit your own 
 lessons
 to your hearts desire).
 Along with this comes the “Lesson calculator” which is designed to 
 give
 you feedback on your custom lessons, how complex they are, how long 
 it’ll
 take a student to type them etc..)
 The ability to import/export lessons. So if you create lessons you’d 
 like
 to share or someone else has made some you think are cool it’s very 
 easy
 to open them and use them with Keystroke.
 Because of it’s compatibility with braille displays it can be used to 
 test
 Braille writing speeds.
 It learns from you as you type and gives useful feedback via the 
 “Keyboard
 Assistant” (This can even provide directional feedback such as: “The 
 j key
 is 2 keys to the right”)
 Designed to work natively with VoiceOver

Re: Trasferring file.

If you want to do it with terminal you could use ftp. But you may find that it 
is possible to email this file (using mac mail). I’m not sure of your operating 
system but a while back apple put in mail drop to help with incredibly large 
files. I’m not sure if it’ll accommodate 10 gigs but it may be worth a shot.

Re: Wow! What a Nice Little Utility!

[Tyler Thompson]

I’d like to throw in my 2 cents here. I’m a software engineer, My job 
involves designing (for both PC and Mac) different applications and tools. So 
my 2 cents here is primarily based off of that knowledge. Generally speaking 
anything that you might consider “junk” has the potential to be an incredibly 
useful resource. Mac was designed off of an operating system called unix. Unix 
had the job of running on highly sophisticated servers for long periods of 
time. The whole purpose from the ground up was to make sure that “junk” never 
even got written to your hard drive.

Apple has worked very hard to make sure that those ideals stay true, so 
“junk” doesn’t ever exist unless you as the user try very hard to put it there. 
I personally wouldn’t ever pay to have a tool “clean” a machine that was 
already clean. These tools (as far as the mac is concerned) aren’t preventative 
nor are they able to solve any serious issues. The moral of the story is just 
don’t worry about it. If your mac starts running slowly take it to somebody 
that knows what they’re doing, otherwise trust the system. 

Unlike windows there’s no such thing as a “defragmenter” or “cleaner” 
that just magically makes things run better. It’s also (in my experience) not 
necessary to restart your mac very often because again, if a problem exists 
there isn’t some magical fix to that problem. The mac is a system that in 
general, doesn’t produce issues, but those that it does produce are more 
serious.

Re: haptic feedback on Watch for timer

[Tyler Thompson]

I recently had my haptic feedback stop for all notifications, alarms and even 
siri. It seems that going into settings and turning on prominent haptic, then 
holding the button and powering off the watch, giving it a few seconds and 
powering it back on solved my issues.

 Has anyone had this happen? Right now it’s not a frustration but when I was

 that haptic really helped know when my workout time was up.

Re: I'm Blacklisted From EU Right of Withdrawal Refunds

 http://readwrite.com/2015/01/13/apple-blocks-app-store-refund-abusers
 
 I’ve only used the facility once to return an inaccessible Mac app from the

 progress, which I explicitly indicated was for accessibility reasons, my 
 account is in the blacklisted state and I can no longer buy apps without 
 waving my rights (which I’m fairly sure verges on the illegal if not 
 actually).
 
 If you are hoping, as I was, that this refund process might help you 
 rightfully return digital products that are not fit for purpose because they 
 are inaccessible, you might have to think again.  I’d just arranged things to 
 make more use of this feature, by turning off automatic downloads and 
 removing every app from my devices and iTunes, with the intention of testing 
 every incoming app and ultimately ending up only with those apps which should 
 justifiably be on my devices and on my account because they were accessible.  
 Sadly, this doesn’t seem to be possible now.  I of course think it should.  
 We shouldn’t be paying for apps which aren’t accessible, merely because it’s 
 easy to do so and hard to avoid.
 
 I’ll let you know if my account ever ceases to be blacklisted.  If you have 
 any information, let me know.  It’s entirely possible the normal state of 
 affairs will resume after my outstanding refund is complete, but I’d love to 
 hear if anyone else has had this issue after just two refunds.
 
 Cheers,

Re: Need Pointers Regarding OSX Software Developement Environment (SDE)

[Tyler Thompson]

Alex is pretty much dead on.  Xcode is your best bet for an accessible GUI 
based tool that will compile in C/C++. make/nmake are theoretically available 
but you’ll need a wine wrapper, see this stack overflow post: 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3483146/using-nmake-on-osx 
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/3483146/using-nmake-on-osx 

Xcode also comes with a set of command-line tools that you’ll need if you’re 
determined to write programs in C.

Now to expand on your question a little I would say it really sounds like 
you’re wanting to just write software on the mac. While you can definitely do 
this in c and c++ you’ll find it much more efficient to use Objective-C and 
(when they work out a few more kinks) swift. Xcode is hailed as one of most 
advanced IDE’s available and the fact that it’s free certainly adds to it’s 
appeal. My advice would be to think of OS X as it’s own operating system rather 
than UNIX with a skin on top. Yes it’s technically true but if you take it as 
it’s own independent platform and treat it as such while you’re coding you’ll 
find it works smoother and responds better than if you try to treat it like a 
UNIX machine.

Re: Developing an App

[Tyler Thompson]

Some clarification is necessary before you can receive any real answers to this 
question. First of all it appears to me you want this to be web based. Writing 
web apps or even websites is immensely different than writing an application 
that runs on iOS or OS X. App development (both kinds of apps that I’ve 
mentioned above) has been my job now for several years.

Now on a very basic level it sounds to me like you just want a forum that 
allows for anonymous posting. Developing this yourself requires a lot of skill 
because as soon as you allow people to write information on your server you are 
allowing for all kinds of injection attacks. If I were you and I was trying to 
accomplish this goal I’d look at using some pre-made forums from developers who 
have been doing it for years and have sealed up all the security breeches 
you’re bound to leave open if you attempt this yourself without experience.

If you’re looking to develop this on the mac or the iPhone you’ve just 
restricted your user-base to apple people. Now I love apple people but your 
email eludes that you need anybody from any device to be able to ask a 
question, that means you simply must have it be a web app. If you have any  
more questions please feel free to contact me on or off the list.

 results, but nothing saying whether it was accessible or not. Can anyone 
 direct me to where I would go to either listen to a step-by-step 
 demonstration on creating an app or somewhere that is going to provide 
 detailed instructions. Alternatively, if someone has the knowledge that they 
 would be willing to share with me regarding how they create apps on list or 
 off list on developing this app, read below for description, then I would 
 love to hear the ideas. Offlist address:
 lawdog...@comcast.net mailto:lawdog...@comcast.net
 Description of what I am wanting to do:   
   I am looking to develop an app for my institution where I can have people 
 post anonymous questions to the app and have others respond to the questions. 
 The disability department there are concerned that not everyone is receiving 
 the attention that they need due to not wanting to identify themselves as 
 having a disability. I feel that the app will accomplish this goal. There 
 apps out there like I am wanting to create such as YikYak, but the rules will 
 not be as liberal on the app I am wanting to create as they are on YikYak. 
 Thank you all for any advice you can offer on this matter.

Re: Toggle Bluetooth Script

[Tyler Thompson]

I’d personally just add the sound effect after you end the tell, that way 
you’re not waiting on system preferences to close but the sound alerts you to 
when bluetooth has been toggled.

Microsoft RDP on Mac problem

[Tyler Thompson]

Hey Everybody,

So I’m using Microsoft RDP for the Mac which has worked surprisingly 
well considering it’s a Microsoft product running on apple technology. I 
recently ran into a spectacularly interesting problem that I’m wondering if 
anybody can shed some light on. One of my remote desktop sessions was 
connecting to a Lady’s Machine, her machine was running JAWS (at the time 14) 
and she had high-contrast turned on. Now obviously JAWS doesn’t play well with 
remote sessions but that’s not really the problem.

The first time I remoted into her machine everything went well, there 
were no errors and I logged out. The second time when I remoted in to her 
machine it got the “blue screen of death” and proceeded to crash and restart. 
It’s also worth noting that a couple of weeks after I remoted in the first time 
JAWS started acting up, apparently cutting out frequently. Every since my 
second remote session I simply cannot remote into her machine without it 
crashing and getting that infamous blue screen.

Okay so it was time for her to get a new machine anyways, so we ordered 
her a new computer (rather nice, HP, i7 processor etc…) and I started setting 
it up. Now for reasons unrelated to this issue I usually set up a machine 
remotely, even if it’s sitting in my office and this is where life gets weird. 
We have everybody set up on an Active Directory domain so in order to remote 
into the new machine I duplicated her old Remote desktop profile and just 
changed the machine name to match the new one I was setting up.

Upon doing this I realized that her machine was in high-contrast. I 
assumed it was some how tied into her AD profile. The machine ran fine, I was 
able to set up everything as normal (installed office, the free version of 
Window Eyes etc…). Then I installed JAWS 16 (the demo version from the freedom 
scientific website). The moment JAWS ran for the first time her brand new 
computer had the same blue screen and proceeded to crash and restart.

The first thing to mention is I’ve got other people on our network who 
are running JAWS and have remoted into their machines using Mac RDP without 
issue. The next thing is that a colleague of mine remoted in using windows RDP 
without issue to BOTH machines mentioned in this email. Eventually I solved the 
issue by deleting both RDP profiles and re-creating them. I can now remote in 
to both machines without issue.

So to sum up my questions does anybody have any clue how or why this 
remote desktop profile on the Mac would crash the remote machine ONLY when JAWS 
is running? These problems were inexplicably tied in with JAWS (debateable 
whether high-contrast had an effect). We have enough JAWS users on the network 
that it’s worth my time to try and track down this issue.

Re: Programmatically make VoiceOver speak on OSX

I'd like to make a point of clarification here, this code snippet has it's

couldn't be used to accomplish the same thing as efficiently. This is of no use

 IN the MacOS there is a system wide scripting language called AppleScript. 
 You can use it to automate actions in various programs or as in this case

 tell application VoiceOver

 In this example the script tells VoiceOver to say the string Hello World as

 Hello, this is a tidbit for those of you interested in developing for OSX,
 
   I have dug through tons of documentation on VoiceOver accessibility and

 this function I thought I'd share with everybody:
 
 -(void)speakString:(NSString *)stringToSpeak fromFocusedUIElement:(id)object

 NSDictionary *announcementInfo = [[NSDictionary alloc] 
 initWithObjectsAndKeys:stringToSpeak, NSAccessibilityAnnouncementKey, 
 @High, NSAccessibilityPriorityKey, nil];
 NSAccessibilityPostNotificationWithUserInfo(object, 
 NSAccessibilityAnnouncementRequestedNotification, announcementInfo);
 }
 
 This could easily be expanded on, for instance we could include in this 
 function a way to tell the object that currently has keyboard focus to assure 
 that VoiceOver always speaks the string as opposed to you having to figure it 
 out. We could also add a NSAccessibilityLayoutChanged notification to refresh 
 the braille display (Although in some very bizarre cases this causes 
 VoiceOver to speak twice (once with the announcement, once for the layout 
 change). In other cases the announcement interrupts the layout change 
 notification or visa versa, I have yet to figure that bit out. 
 
 However I felt like this code snippet could do some people good, so there it 
 is.

Programmatically make VoiceOver speak on OSX

[Tyler Thompson]

Hello, this is a tidbit for those of you interested in developing for OSX,

I have dug through tons of documentation on VoiceOver accessibility and 
submitted several support tickets to apple for assistance and I finally wrote 
this function I thought I'd share with everybody:

-(void)speakString:(NSString *)stringToSpeak fromFocusedUIElement:(id)object
{
NSDictionary *announcementInfo = [[NSDictionary alloc] 
initWithObjectsAndKeys:stringToSpeak, NSAccessibilityAnnouncementKey, @High, 
NSAccessibilityPriorityKey, nil];
NSAccessibilityPostNotificationWithUserInfo(object, 
NSAccessibilityAnnouncementRequestedNotification, announcementInfo);
}

This could easily be expanded on, for instance we could include in this 
function a way to tell the object that currently has keyboard focus to assure 
that VoiceOver always speaks the string as opposed to you having to figure it 
out. We could also add a NSAccessibilityLayoutChanged notification to refresh 
the braille display (Although in some very bizarre cases this causes VoiceOver 
to speak twice (once with the announcement, once for the layout change). In 
other cases the announcement interrupts the layout change notification or visa 
versa, I have yet to figure that bit out. 

However I felt like this code snippet could do some people good, so there it is.

Re: Programmatically make VoiceOver speak on OSX

[Tyler Thompson]

the value: @High is the priority, as in low, medium, high. The second 
parameter must be the UI element that currently has keyboard focus, this can be 
a NSView object or subclass it can also be a custom object. If you pass the 
object as nil you'll get no result. I don't know if it'll result in a crash or 
not.

Re: Programmatically make VoiceOver speak on OSX

[Tyler Thompson]

Yes and no, I've found several snippets but I haven't had a lot of luck testing 
them. So far as I can tell what we're looking for here is the windows first 
responder which by claim should be returned by either subleasing the window or 
just calling [window firstresponder]. Unfortunately that seems to return the 
highest responder (i.e.: the window itself or in one test just now a subclassed 
view) but not the lowest element (which is what we care about) i.e. an 
NSTextField. I'll do some more tinkering and see if I can't get back to you on 
that.

Alright, solution time; this requires you to pass an NSWindow for mainWindow (I 
just linked it using an IBOutlet)

-(void)speakString:(NSString *)stringToSpeak

NSDictionary *announcementInfo = [[NSDictionary alloc] 
initWithObjectsAndKeys:stringToSpeak, NSAccessibilityAnnouncementKey, @High,

NSAccessibilityPostNotificationWithUserInfo([mainWindow

Re: Programmatically make VoiceOver speak on OSX

[Tyler Thompson]

Ahh and I forgot to mention that if you want to just test this, use a timer on 
a 10 second delay because an announcement will not speak over the top of 
VoiceOver announcing that your build succeeded and application opened.

Re: apple script and I message.

[Tyler Thompson]

While that's possible using applescript I'd recommend a much simpler solution. 
Just send the X is typing as a system notification. You could target it just 
to voiceover users but as a notification it may be more universally useful. 
Here's a link on how to do that with applescript:

 would probably have to make an if statement if I don't want that script to be

 voiceover users. Is this possible to do?

 Hello Everybody,
 
  
 
 I spent some time posting about iMud the accessible MUD client for OSX. 
 Unfortunately due to a new (and very demanding) job I haven't had the chance 
 to work on it in the past nine months. It's a good program and I feel like 
 it's needed so I've put up a dummy website for people to download the 
 pre-release beta. It functions sufficiently. I can't guarantee it'll be 
 compatible with everybody's MAC but I do think it'll be useable, which is a 
 good start.
 
  
 
 I will continue to work on the project when I have time. The beta will be 
 free and I will do my best to fix any outstanding issues you may encounter as 
 quickly as possible. Here's a direct link to download iMud: 
 https://sites.google.com/site/imudforosx/iMudForOsx.app?attredirects=0d=1 
 and one for the google site: https://sites.google.com/site/imudforosx/ 
 
  
 
 Thank you for your patience and continued support.
 
  
 
 Tyler

Re: iMud

[Tyler Thompson]

Yes, this is due to the fact you aren't running OSX 10.8+ I can send you a 
private email with a version that works from 10.6+ but I cannot guarantee it 
will function at 100% (it's all dependent on your OS version)

It's a hidden folder as apple doesn't want people getting there, it's where

Re: Ftp and Terminal mode

You need to use a DNS lookup on the link to figure out the IP address.

Here’s what you type into the terminal prompt:

dig domain.name

Easy as that.

This isn’t a direct answer to your question but up arrow cycles through the

Re: IMud for IOS is ready for beta testing

[Tyler Thompson]

It’s not the same app, I’ve seen it but as I managed to copyright the name I’m 
assuming the developer of that app hasn’t. It’s possible that I can change the 
name for the iOS version. It’s something to worry about after I’ve got the app 
working a little better.

Thanks for pointing it out however, my client is not on the app store yet so 
don’t download that one thinking it’s accessible.

Re: antivirus for mac, is it useful?

[Tyler Thompson]

I’d recommend downloading virusBarrier (from the app store). Mac’s however 
don’t generally get Viruses. You have a small chance of getting one if you 
download a lot of 3rd party apps that you can’t find in the app store, past 
that it’s unlikely.

Re: iMud has been submitted to the mac app store

[Tyler Thompson]

Rest assured I have MSP (Mud Sound Protocol) support and I have worked with 
developers from many popular MUDs to make the client as great as possible. The 
$5 is a one time payment, there are no in-app purchases or special costs for 
upgrades to the client. 

Don’t overestimate the client, it won’t be as good as some of the windows 
clients that have been around for years on it’s release date. It is however 
already the only truly accessible client I’ve seen for OSX and I will continue 
to work to make it better as time goes on.

 Ah, thanks. I shall expect much for that cost, like detailed, high quality

 Ah, thanks. I shall expect much for that cost, like detailed, high quality 
 sound packs for popular muds such as alter aeon, mirioni, and so on. I 
 really can't wait to try them! Also, for the iOs version, have the sound 
 packs optional, so that the user could download the soundpacks required.

Re: iMud has been submitted to the mac app store

[Tyler Thompson]

I’ve considered it but post-release it’s much easier to have it automatically 
update through the app store than trying to authenticate versions with a server 
and prompt the user to update constantly. Then having to deal with feedback 
from different versions etc… It’s still on the “maybe” list but the issue they 
found with the client is minor and already fixed, so we will see.

iMud (the accessible MUD client) has moved to the iPhone!

[Tyler Thompson]

the OSX version of iMud is looking good, I have a little entitlements problem 
to fix with iTunes connect but it’s no big thing. Other than that it looks like 
iMud is almost ready to put on the app store!

That being said the bigger news is that iMud is looking good on iOS so far, 
I’ve got a few accessibility things I need to hammer out before I can 
officially open it up for beta testing but I will be shooting another message 
to the group in the near future asking for iOS beta testers. 

Accessibility on the iPhone is a lot different so to say pulling this off in a 
100% accessible way will be hard is an understatement. It shouldn’t be 
incredibly difficult, however, to at least get a useable version up and running 
in the near future. The biggest goal is to minimize on typing (that’s for both 
blind and sighted users). I have a few ideas on how to do that but it’ll be an 
experience for sure. 

I encourage any ideas on a clever design for making a MUD client on the iPhone 
something new and spectacular :)

Re: Apple App Store Refunds for inaccessible Apps

[Tyler Thompson]

Speaking as a developer I can say it takes a lot of work to make an app 
accessible, I feel there's a lot apple could do to help 3rd party developers 
create accessible apps. Including something as simple as improving the quality 
of their documentation

 little they can do about third-party apps. I pointed out that Apple reviews 
 every app and that they could give the developer feedback on accessibility at 
 the time of the app's review, and he thought that was a good idea. So, 
 whatever suggestions you have for fixing this problem, both on the App Store

 I, too, urge everyone to do the same. Don't forget to call them as

Re: xcode creating actions and outlets

[Tyler Thompson]

Send me your Xcode project and let me take a look at what's going on, I won't 
have steady internet access for just a bit but I'll take a look ASAP

 I know it has been some time since this thread ended, but I saved the below 
 message and just implemented the code therein. When I run it, I am told that 
 the build was successful, yet I get no window at all. As was instructed, I 
 erased the xib file entirely, and I have a suspicion that there is more to do 
 with instantiating a view so the Mac knows what to show than what is in the 
 below snippet. So, how might one get this to actually run? Also, should I 
 update app delegate.h, or will Xcode take care of it? I am asking here 
 because, frustratingly, I see an empty table when I switch to the debug 
 viewer, so I have no errors or warnings to work off of.

 I’d like to post this little code snippet for anybody who’s interested. This 
 is for OSX apps (as i find them easier to test) and it’s incredibly simple, 
 but it’ll give anyone who is interested an idea of how to do what we’ve been 
 talking about.
 
 So i created a new project under Xcode and DELETED the .xib file (so the 
 Interface Builder is never touched)
 I named my Xcode project skipIB
 
 I didn’t touch appDelegate.h but here’s what i’ve written for appDelegate.m
 
 #import AppDelegate.h
 
 @implementation AppDelegate
 
 - (void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(NSNotification *)aNotification
 {
 // Insert code here to initialize your application
 NSButton *myButton = [[NSButton alloc] initWithFrame:NSMakeRect(0, 0, 
 50, 50)];
 // We create a simple square button at the bottom left of the screen 
 position 0,0
 [[_window contentView] addSubview:myButton];
 // We tell our applications main window to add our button to its view
 [myButton setAction:@selector(buttonPressed)];
 // We tell our button to use our buttonPressed method when the button is 
 pressed...
 }
 
 -(void)buttonPressed
 {
 NSLog (@YOU PRESSED THE BUTTON);
 //We send a message to our debugger to let us know our button was pressed
 }
 
 @end
 
 
 The point of this snippet is to show the ease of skipping the interface 
 builder. This is accessible, you can run it, and press said button. To do 
 this on IOS would have slightly different syntax, but the same idea applies. 
 It actually took me longer to comment this code than it did to look up 
 NSButtons setAction method in the apple docs and write the rest of the code.
 
 I can’t say i’d provide a tutorial, but I would be more than happy to work 
 with any individuals interested in writing apps for either IOS or OSX. I 
 invite you all to try this code, i’ve just tested it (with voiceOver) and 
 everything seems to be working’ fine :)

 I don't know enough about Objective-c to know one way or the other, I'm

 author assumes you are very well-versed in the language already. Beginners 
 generally use IB since it does the hard work that they do not understand, 
 plus it has myriad advantages (accessibility, proper declarations, plain 
 old ease of use, proper placement of code in files...) A step-by-step 
 buide, at the end of which we have a fully accessible, if simple, app and 
 where IB is not even mentioned, would be ideal.

 said, every tutorial and book out there assumes you are using it, and for 
 good reason. Even Apple's own tutorials, one of which I tried to walk 
 through a few months ago, offered no alternatives to IB. I have reported 
 the unfortunate accessibility bug that prevents VO users from 
 control-dragging actions a few times, so they most definitely know it 
 exists. Perhpas Xcode5 will fix it and all this discussion will be moot.

Re: xcode creating actions and outlets

[Tyler Thompson]

Let me start out by saying you don’t actually ever #include/#import the xib, 
(that’s the user interface file and even when you’ve chosen to use the 
interface builder you don’t ever include it anywhere) I can tell you that stack 
overflow is a wonderful resource for any objective c/cocoa help. (personally i 
find the apple documentation horribly lacking)

alright so if i were you just to start learning and understand what’s going on 
i’d add your button to your appDelegate (NSObject class automatically added to 
every project)

You’ll want to use either your 
-(void)applicationDidFinishLaunching:(NSNotification *)aNotification OR your 
-(void)awakeFromNib method to go ahead and draw your UIButton i’ll include a 
snippet in the email that uses awakeFromNib, should do what you’re looking 
for...

-(void)awakeFromNib
{
UIButton *myButton = [[UIButton alloc] 
initWithFrame:NSMakeRect(0,0,50,50)];
// this draws a square button (50 by 50 pixels) in the bottom left 
corner
[myButton addTarget:self action:@selector(buttonPressed) 
forControlEvents:UIControlEventTouchUpInside];
// this tells the button to use the buttonPressed method when the 
control event happens... i.e.: the user presses the button
}

-(void)buttonPressed
{
//Put whatever you want the button to do in here, right now it just 
logs the fact the button was pressed in your debug output
NSLog (@“SEE THE USER PRESSED THE BUTTON”)
}




The above code should work just fine although i wrote it in the email without 
testing, let me know if there’s any other way i can help :)

Re: xcode creating actions and outlets

[Tyler Thompson]

 for each. Once we learn to build 
 applications programmatically, then we are more competent programmers than 
 our sighted counterparts because we understand what’s really going on. In 
 addition, when we use a textbook, we literally have to translate Interface 
 Builder speak into lines of code. The question then is this, where is the 
 Objective C documentation? Where can we find a description of all of the 
 APIS? Can you point us in the right direction?
  
 Thanks so much.

 believe me i understand the frustrations of working with objective C, 
 especially if it’s new. As it happens I find that programmatically linking 
 your UI elements tends to actually work a little better (as it gives you 
 much more control), but for each person it’s different :)

Re: xcode creating actions and outlets

[Tyler Thompson]

I can’t speak to the voiceOver side of things but i know most blind developers 
i’ve spoken to just simply don’t use the interface builder at all, no reason 
you can’t initialize your object and hook it up to your method with 
NSNotifications or it’s delegate method, a little more specifics on what you’re 
hooking up might be useful :)

Re: how to force trash removal, again

[Tyler Thompson]

to address the part about seeing hidden files the short answer is it’s very 
difficult and you shouldn’t, having access to hidden files means you could 
delete something important (example most folders have 2 hidden files telling 
the finder specific information about said folder)

Re: webpage builder suggestions

[Tyler Thompson]

I would recommend against using a paid service (like go daddy), especially if 
this is your first website. I would suggest starting with google sites (i can’t 
speak to how accessible it is, but i don’t imagine you’d run into any more 
problems than anywhere else). It’s free, it’s easy to use and never goes down. 

The only downside is your URL will be something obnoxious like 
http://sites.google.com/site/username/index.html  — if you build up your site 
and are satisfied with it it’s easy to buy a domain name and tell google to use 
that instead.

Re: IOS 7 did I hear something right?

yes, siri has a new improved voice, and you can change it to a male voice

there's smart logic to give priority to apps that you use often, it preserves 
battery life.

Re: How to make sure you delete a whole app from the mac?

[Tyler Thompson]

In your average app all the files are contained in the app package, thus 
putting the app in the trash removes all the corresponding files. A good 
developer will include an uninstall feature in their app if they're saving a 
ton of extra information outside of the app itself. Generally speaking if you 
got your app from the app store moving it to the trash should be fine. 

There are a couple of commonly used hidden folders where developers save 
user-info, but most often that's just a simple (and very small) text file.

 Hi everyone,
 With windows presumably when you use remove programs from settings you remove

 you can move the .app file to the trash but how do you delete all the other

 Is there a uniform way to do this, some kind of tool?
