[nfbcs] Secure Shell to Unix system & Accessibility

[Doug Lee]

If you can find a way to check and/or control this, make sure your ssh
client is using a blinking cursor, not a solid block. JAWS has trouble
with solid-block cursors.  Short of that, you could try another ssh
client if that's permitted. The one in Cygwin works pretty well for
me, but of course Cygwin is more to install than just an ssh client. I
don't think I've used any others in Windows though, so I can't
recommend a specific alternative.

I am using a Secure Shell (SSH) that provides a secure terminal session to a
remote UNIX-based host at my university for a computer programming course
I'm taking.  I can read the information in the window using JAWS cursor, but
I'm having difficulty being able to freely use the PC Cursor.  Using the
JAWS cursor does allow me to utilize my Braille display.  Does anyone have
any suggestions to make this set up more accessible or a little more
efficient?
