<p class="MsoNormal">Good afternoon,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">My name is Aitch, I work at The Open University as an Accessibility and Usability Tester (predominantly accessibility). I’m currently doing some accessibility testing work on RStudio for a statistics module creation team who are considering
it for the course. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If you don’t mind, I’ve been investigating RStudio – and testing it using NVDA and keyboard short cuts to access – and I’ve come across an issue that is proving hard to figure out and I wondered if I could ask some questions.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I can’t get the screen reader to read the output of commands in the console. It will read the commands as I type them, but the output itself remains stubbornly illegible. Is there a way to make it read them that I simply haven’t figured
out yet?<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">If not, I wonder if there are any workarounds that you know of, or if you could maybe let me know how blind users do their statistics work? That last may be a more complicated question than I intend!
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Thanks very much in advance,<o:p></o:p></p>
