[Blindmath] Texnik center

Ryan,

What actions did you need to use the Jaws cursor for?

I managed everything I wanted to do in Texnik Center without using the jaws
cursor, but that might reflect my experiment rather than anything
comprehensive.

One of the things I did enjoy about texnik center was that I could embed R
commands into a source LaTeX document, have them processed and the output
and graphs put into the final version of the document for me. Very useful
for saving on cut and paste actions.

Jonathan

   I personally use MiKTeX and I compile it through TeXnic Center.
They work well for me.  TeXnic center requires the use of the Jaws curser
for those who use that screen reading software.  If your student uses some
vision with a screen magnifier that may not be a consideration.
