Re: [ros-dev] no replies about making reactos accessible for the blind

[Dick]

i think the chance ereactos has is to develop accessibility as part of the
os instead of depending on a screenreader. when reactos does all
accessibillity stuff itself it can make things accessibel that are not
accessibel with screenreaders because the accessibility is built into the
os itself, like graphics are sent to the gpu text should be sent to the
braille display, maybe it should be built like a monochrome mode,
everything should still work but the used screen is not capable of anny
graphics so just the text should be sent to it.
