[nfbcs] Seeking Information on Screen Readers

[Tony Malykh]

Hi William,

I can recommend my NVDA add-on called IndentNav:

https://addons.nvda-project.org/addons/indentNav.en.html

It is very useful for navigating source code. For example, you can jump 
to the next-previous line with the same indent, which would allow you to 
quickly jump between function definitions, or skip a long if statement 
in the source code. You can also jump to a parent line - that is a line 
with lesser indentation, that would allow you to quickly go to function 
definition line from anywhere within the function. You can check out 
more keyboard shortcuts in IndentNav's documentation.



Regards

Tony
