Kwagga Productions spake unto us the following wisdom:
Hallo guys. I am a blind person. I have to use pidgin to talk to my
mxit buddies. My screen reader don't want to read pidgin's
conversation window. I know that there arn't any screen readers that
support pidgin so i have to make do with what i've got. So i enlarge
the fonts in pidgin. But guys sometimes and more frequently these
days pidgin loads a conversation window and the display is terrible.
Can you please look in to the matter for me? Thank you. It's a pitty
that the conversation window isn't just text based or else my screen
reader would read it. You know i am not asking the world to adapt to
me All i am asking is people to find ideas to help me adapt to the
rest of the world. Thanx again for the hep. Corrie
Are you in Windows?
Pidgin actually uses a widget toolkit which has extensive support for
screen reading and other accessibility measures. They may not work in
Windows, or may require additional effort to plumb into your Windows
screen reading software. The toolkit is called Gtk+, you may wish to
search around the web and see if there is a standard solution for
screen reading with Gtk+ on Windows.
If you're not on Windows ... it really should work, and we'd love to
know why it doesn't, so we can fix it.
