On 3/9/2007 at 6:53 Zachary Kline said Howdy, I was wondering if anybody might be able to give me an idea of what games and amusements they might be able to successfully access under Linux? I myself am a big fan of the 'roguelike games', and have found that for the most part Speakup works tolerably well with most of them. (The only real annoyance I can see is that the keys to move by lines are defaulting to reading the new line--and in the case of a game like Nethack or Rogue that doesn't always make much sense. I was wondering about a possible feature to toggle the up-down behavior--possibly to read characters, words, or lines as appropriate? Also, I was wondering what anybody else on here thinks? How do you amuse yourselves with Linux? Thanks much, Zack. _______________________________________________ Speakup mailing list Speakup@braille.uwo.ca http://speech.braille.uwo.ca/mailman/listinfo/speakup
