You can telnet into osx with ssh and it's got a ready made set of shells right out of the box. You can use the terminal application on the mac its self but the interface with VoiceOver needs some work. I don't know that you can boot directly into the command line though. -- Johnnie Apple Seed ----- Original Message ----- From: ".dan." To: Sent: Tuesday, May 03, 2005 12:27 PM Subject: voiceover and unix/linux In the original post I was fishing for some possibility of using the underlying os more directly then doing a linux dual boot approach. It's my understanding that the os is in the unix/linux family, the "bst" term comes to mind as a unix/linux workalike as the mac os being used. If it is so related, can pine and lynx etc. be compiled and used instead of doing a dual boot linux thing? Further, what speech approach might be possible? I ask again about doing dosemu in either case, will dos talk to the mac hardware?
