Hello, I'm blind myself, and I'm hapiest when I have a good programming project. So I'm looking for suggestions for programs that would really benefit blind people. I think a text-mode program, possibly using the curses library, would be most appropriate. I've tested Gnome and Gnopernicus, but they really aren't ready for normal use by blind persons, at least not for those who use braille displays. On a related subject, I really can't see any inherent advantage to a GUI unless you can actually SEE the screen. All the usability features can be implemented in text mode. Thanks, -- John J.
