[BlindMath] [EXTERNAL EMAIL] LaTeX IDE

There are Emacs packages for editing BibTeX files - probably the most accessible option at this point, and definitely recommended if you like Emacs, as I do. Any text editor can suffice, as BibTeX files are plain text. However, a good reference management tool will certainly help.

Based on a quick inspection, it appears that BibDesk (a Mac OS tool for editing BibTeX files) is at least somewhat accessible.

I also tried Zotero at one point, but it had significant accessibility limitations which I reported to their GitHub repository.

Others on this list may have good suggestions as well.

    Hi,
    I have an other question to the same goal.
    Do you know an accessible bibliographic manager?
    I want to import, create, edit and finally export references to bibteex
    format or an other works with LaTeX.
    Thank you for your help.
    Mathieu

    >> Emacs works under Windows 10 with a screen reader, and under Linux, of course, from the console. On the Mac, you need to run it in terminal mode rather than as a graphical application. Even then, it's awkward, as VoiceOver for Mac in the terminal isn't as refined an experience as one would prefer.

    >> It's possible to use the Emacspeak spoken interface under Linux or Mac OS, however, which gives the best over-all accessibility for speech users. For braille output, I would recommend BRLTTY with the Linux console. NVDA and JAWS both offer good braille support in the Windows environment.
