Blind support
« on: October 29, 2008, 04:30:39 am »
At present there is a rather interesting thread on TMS about how to support blind players:
http://www.topmudsites.com/forums/tavern-blue-hand/5186-going-graphical.html

I know that we have a couple of blind players on 4D, I also know that at least some things have been done to support this group.
One of them obviously is !battlespam. I am not sure what we others are.

We don't have a lot of ascii art in the zones, apart from the Maps, which aren't automatically displayed.
There is some graphic stuff on the score tables however, not sure how that affects a screen reader.

Perhaps some of the coders could explain what we've got and how it works?
