Description hamidreza abroshan CLA 2021-12-03 03:48:33 EST 
First, I need to say if I report this bug to wrong section, please accept my apologies . I searched a lot and could not find appropriate section.
Step to reproduce:
press ctrl+alt+t or from file>view open this view.
2. download free and open source Nvda screen reader.
3. press enter on Nvda.exe and after accepting licence agreement click continue running.
4. return back to the terminal and try to execute some commands.
It will read nothing!
Expected behaviour:
if you press insert+2, Nvda will read every character that you type.
If you write something or delete by backSpace key, Nvda should read these characters and if you press enter after command, Nvda should read the result if this command writes some results on screen.
The terminal should be navigable by arrow keys like  eclipse console and any result or error should be copyable.
Thanks.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
