I am glad to see that we can use x-windows, but will this program also support standard unix shells such as bash, or tcsh? Also, are there plans to support other synthesizers? I use a keynnote gold internal. I am pretty sure humanware would give the documentation out to a programmer willing to attempt the task. also, I have heard work of trying to make a talking shell for the blind. This bothers me. I like bas, other may like tcsh, ksh, or whatever. Why can't a screen reader be written that is independent of the shell? Sorry if this is off-topic.
