[nfbcs] Jaws and Cygwin

[John G. Heim]

I use openSsh for Windows. Here is a link to an old version of openSsh for
Windows:

And here is a link to a jaws script for it:

Kevin;
If you can run the program directly on Unix or Linux you may have better
luck using an SSH program on either Windows or Mac.
I believe there are a number of SSH solutions that are accessible to windows
screen readers.
The Mac Terminal program is totally accessible to the native Voiceover
screen reader for use as an SSH client on the Mac.

However, I ran into a few problems trying to use cygwin. When I open the
cygwin terminal, I cannot get jaws (version 12) to read the output of what I
type. The only way I can get such information is by pressing insert+b to
read the whole window, or by selecting the entire window and pasting it into
notepad. It doesn't even seem like the terminal is doing anything when I
enter inputs (though I know it is doing something). Does anyone have any
suggestions for anything I can do to start to get the terminal to behave
more like an actual command line with jaws?
