* On Mac OS, using QuickNav with VoiceOver and reviewing with VO +Control + left and right arrows word by word land you in different parts of the text getting reviewed.
* To select chunks of text to re-paste (such as when Git tells me an exact command to enter), I do: Command+A to select terminal contents, text edit paste it, then find the bit I need to use. (update: use VO+Command+Enter)

Pred pár dňami sme vďaka @Zvonimir Stanecic a ďalším dobrovoľníkom zverejnili prvý slovenský ženský hlas pre #rhvoice. Hlas dostal aj pekné netradičné meno Jasietka. K dispozícii sú hlasy pre #Windows #nvdasr #android aj #linux . Aktualizácie sa zároveň dočkala aj celková podpora pre slovenčinu, vrátane už skôr zverejneného slovenského hlasu Ondro. Ak potrebujete #tts #textToSpeech k čítaču obrazovky, na čítanie kníh, inštrukcie pre GPS navigáciu, pozrite si prosím podrobnosti na jednoduchom webe.
1. Allow shift+tabbing to the message list without the app crashing, since Microsoft apparently can't be bothered fixing this rather severe bug.
2. Allow alt+1 to focus the Conversations list when the Messages view is already active instead of just doing nothing.
I can't really be bothered submitting it as a proper add-on or a core app module, but if anyone wants it, let me know and I can throw it up somewhere.
Does anyone know why NVDA isn't letting me read by arrows when I try to rename a file form Explorer with f2 or the rename context menu option?
Issue with #NVDASR 2024.2 and Windows 10 22H2 (AMD64) build 19045.4529.
Is there an #NVDASR setting that would cause multi-byte emoji to not read? This emoji reads as cat wrong to me instead of black cat.

Another approach I haven't yet tested but am just thinking of might be reusing platform specific notification channels such as interfacing directly with a screen readers on windows such as #nvdasr controler client and using announcement role on linux to generate voice prompts for the screen readrers. This might have a similar effect to the end user than the virtual midi port but will be built into mixxx it-self.
@Mixxx DJ Software have you also got some ideas related to this please?
