Hi,

Good luck getting nfb-cs or just nfb to assist in tackling a specific
program!
There was zero interest in battling cisco packet tracer or making office &
a+ exams accessible last year!

Quite honestly, I would have the school/course instructor come up with the
solution for you.  They may have an option to select accessible software or
to push the software manufacturer to comply which would make it better for
everyone going forward?  Maybe it is time for others to be more aware and
comply with ADA instead of us trying to find workarounds so they don't have
to?

Hi,

I'm currently starting a statistics course, in which we are learning R. I
just installed R Studio and unfortunately, it does not seem to be accessible
with either JAWS or NVDA. Do you have any suggestions as to applications I
could use instead, or workarounds for this? Thanks so much!

Best,
Cricket
