recent emacs installed. I say Unix because it seem
Chris,
What are the requirements for emacs speak? When last I used emacs
regularly on a Ultra-2, I had no need for a screen reader, just
setting my fonts at 28 pt and reverse video (thanks Kyle Jones for
the help). I know there is a copy of emacs in /usr/bin and I think it
might even be

The beauty of free software like orca versus proprietary software like
JAWS (for instance) is that although Sun Microsystems has led the orca
development, virtually any hacker or group thereof can take the source
