Hi,
I have had several annoyingly c issues with the Windows port of Emacs and my
screen reader program, both in console and graphical modes.
The problem with the console mode is that, at least apparently, the status
line is not displayed unless I use a keystroke like M-X, to force something
to be displayed in the echo area. This eliminates a useful source of
information for me.
In graphical mode, the problems are more obvious and annoying. They
manifest themselves from the moment Emacs starts up, I have no idea where my
cursor is, or if it is in fact reading me a correct bit of information.
The mouse movement hot keys of my screen reader work just fine, but that
doesn't help me with the cursor.
I'm wondering, essentially, if anyone has gotten Emacs for Windows, or
otherwise, to work using a screen reader, either through a telnet or SSH
session or through normal local operation.
Thanks for feedback,
Zack
