[BlindRUG] Qualitative research using R: RQDA package

Tue Mar 7 14:09:13 UTC 2017

  Hello Dr. Godfrey,

  Thank you for your advice.

  I have downloaded the RQDA source code from https://github.com/cran/RQDA
and took a look at whether it had any vignette.

  Unfortunately, however, it did not seem to contain any vignette.

 I am not sure whether it will be of any help, but I am copying and pasting
the description information into the below:

  Even though my Java Access Bridge is activated, the RQDA GUI is not
accessible.

  Would you mind if I CC you when I compose an email to the developer?

 Any help would be deeply appreciated.

  Best regards,

Hello  JooYoung

I wanted to check this one out for you so I downloaded the CRAN version and
installed it. Unfortunately, the library() command failed while running R in
a terminal. A development version might work better, but I'm disappointed
the install.packages() worked but library() did not because to me it
suggests the CRAN check process has not caught this problem.

I was hoping to find out which functions were useful in a  command line or
script file way of working. You might read any vignettes you can find or
contact the package maintainer to ask about any vignettes in development.

I can tell you that the tcl/tk package creates menu items that are
accessible but the menus open dialogue boxes that have proven not to be
accessible. Other (newer) packages that develop a GUI have also proven less
than fully accessible.

Having said that, if a package has a vignette, then it must have been made
in a non-GUI way of working so the functionality therein must be suitable
for blind users.

Let us know how you get on.

Jonathan

  Hello,

  I am in the situation where I have to conduct qualitative research. Since
I am an R lover, I googled to see if there exists any qualitative
research-aid R package and found RQDA (R package for qualitative Data
Analysis).

Unfortunately, however, the package GUI window was not accessible when I
tried it with my JAWS 18 screen reader and latest NVDA.

 Could anyone help me to use this package? If it is not accessible for some
reason, I want to post an issue request, but I have no idea about how to
technically address it.

  The package can be found here: http://rqda.r-forge.r-project.org/

Many thanks in advance!

  Best regards,

  JooYoung
