List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Dear Speakup, We hope we have a solid starting point for a "Linux Large Text for Low Vision HOWTO." As stated in the proposed HOWTO's Introduction, "Most of the work remains to be done, such as trying these methods on various Linux boxes with various users, especially low-vision users, and then documenting and incorporating that experience into a HOWTO." Also, any help towards "converting a joystick to a two-axis foot rocker and programming it for right, left, up, down scrolling ("virtual-screen" movement)" would be much appreciated. This would add a lot to user convenience. If interested, please read through the attached HOWTO draft, and note the disclaimer. If you might like to become a contributor as we bring this document to HOWTO stage and/or a maintainer of the HOWTO, contact JP Schnapper- Casteras .
