When I access Linux, I have been using an old P.C. with DOS, a screen reader and kermit which even today works nicely and gets me on to Debian as well as any other form of unix including Sunos and FreeBSD. On rare occasions, I need to visit Mac's and use the Voiceover system. It seems to do well enough at reading a screen and speaking links, for instance, but if I telnet or ssh in to a unix system, I appear to have to manually review the screen to hear prompts or messages that pop up. Since I don't own a Mac or use one on a daily basis, this may be a dumb question, but is there a setting in Voiceover that will echo new data as they come in? That was the thing I immediately missed the first time I tried a Macintosh with Voiceover. Many thanks.
