[nfbcs] Terminal Shell:

[Currin, Kevin]

Hey Charles,

Yes, cygwin is great:
https://cygwin.com/

It is a full terminal emulator, not just ssh. However, the ssh works great.

I have to add that with any terminal program with jaws or NVDA or any other non-linux screen reader, there are some stability issues. After using ssh for
a while with jaws and cygwin, jaws starts reading unrelated output when I enter a command (usually earlier output or something like that). It helps to
frequently clear the screen with ctrl+l. I have found Orca to be much more stable, but I do agree with you that its speech isn't as nice to listen to.

Thanks,

Kevin

All:

Does anyone know of a terminal program that can login into Linux using ssh
and display all information, or at least new information, and have it read
to me while using a windows system to run the terminal program.

If more information is needed, I am running Windows 10 and trying to login
into a Kali Linux system. While I know that Kali has its own speech, JAWS
sounds better and is more user friendly. They are both on the same network.
I currently have Putty. It seems like more trouble that it may be worth to
use that. I would almost assume use Orca.

Does anyone have an alternative to Putty?
