Subject: IRS "accessibility"
Date: Fri, 29 Dec 2006 13:04:42 -0600 (CST)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <Pine.LNX.4.64.0612291245010.19754@maranatha> (raw)


the Irs is now providing "accessible" braille and text files, not to be 
submitted but for 
reference only. but look how they've done it? a winzip file with .txt and 
.brf files contained in it and a .exe extension.
Apparently they can be opened on the mac using stuffit expander, revealing 
the directory with the files. but I'm wondering: can linux users access 
them? at any rate, it seems to me it wouldn't have been hard to do a truly 
accessible downloadable file format.

the relevant url from the message I saw on another list is below my 
signature.
