I hope this is the right
place to extend my gratitude to those who have made the
Eclipse IDE more accessible to the blind. I am a blind student taking
my first programming class in college. The class teaches
Java. I use JAWS screen reading software for windows. The
professor recommended NetBeans, but JAWS didn’t work
with it. Then I downloaded Eclipse
Kepler and it was usable. I turned of automatic content
assist per the instructions. However, when I pressed Control
+ Space to activate content assist, the screen reader would
not stop speaking “one hundred percent” over and
over. So I had to get by without content assist. Recently I downloaded Luna
and that problem seems to have been fixed! I really
appreciate the efforts of those willing to help us out in
this regard. Also, Eclipse now works with
Window’s high-contrast black screen setting.
Yes! Is there a way to donate
money directly to the accessibility project? (I’m a
student though; don’t expect much.) Thanks again. Keep it
up!
