No, I did not mean a package. I meant support and maintenance in Emacs core. IMHO, these features are too important for third-party package that might be abandoned. The initial input about alternative defaults may come from Raman, Samuel, or other interested users who had to customize Emacs in similar ways. > Not > > just for blind, but also settings with large font sizes. > > I have a feeling that the changes for large fonts would be totally > dissimilar to those for screen reading.

What might be common is the way to enable accessibility defaults - I have specific API design in mind, but do not want to discuss it before I see how the general idea is received. -- Ihor Radchenko // yantar92, Org mode maintainer, Learn more about Org mode at .
