Description Dani Megert CLA 2009-03-30 12:08:36 EDT 
I200903

We should describe how to best setup the editor for handicapped users. This would best be done in

org.eclipse.platform.doc.user/concepts/accessibility/accessmain.htm

and by adding a link to this page from the Text and Java editor help doc.

Bug 78244 may contain some useful info for this doc.
Also, note that to get JAWS to read the Eclipse status line, JAWS desktop users type Insert+PageDown.
Comment 2 jose vilmar estacio de souza CLA 2009-04-08 04:43:56 EDT 
To get JAWS to read the Eclipse status line, JAWS laptop users
type capsLlock+PageDown.
Comment 3 Dani Megert CLA 2009-04-08 05:05:56 EDT 
Thanks for the info. I'll add this to the document.
Comment 4 Dani Megert CLA 2009-05-13 07:29:34 EDT 
Also need to document new feature that allows to show the change hover (see bug 243304) and write that if no hover comes up, there are no changes on that line.
Comment 5 Dani Megert CLA 2009-05-27 12:26:40 EDT 
A new document (org.eclipse.platform.doc.user/concepts/accessibility/text_editor.htm) has been added which is linked to by other help documents.

Remaining issue is to polish and complete that new document.
