[nfbcs] Read Write Gold

[qubit]

I wouldn't sell NVDA short -- it is open source and free, but it is also 
surprisingly useful once in a while.  It can give you a whole different 
perspective than jaws.  I don't know about WindowEyes as I have only run it 
a few times.

My guess is if it doesn't work with Jaws or Window Eyes, it won't work with
nvda either.
