Hi, I am keen to know how Linux can enable the disabled (Visually impaired). I am aware of Emacspeak, ESF project and speakup. But is there anything else - tools, software applns or weblinks that are handy for the blind?
Do chip in, I need leads for an article I propose to do.
Thanks for your time. Malovika.
