Hi, Janina, actually Chromium acts as a client of speech-dispatcher, as does Orca. Orca uses the Python API, I don't know which one uses Chromevox, but it works. EDIT: found it here: https://cs.chromium.org/chromium/src/chrome/browser/speech/tts_linux.cc so it's written in C++ and includes this header: https://cs.chromium.org/chromium/src/out/Debug/gen/library_loaders/libspeechd.h where you find the declaration of part of the functions declared in the genuine version of libpseechd.h (the one found in the speech-dispatcher source). But I digress, sorry. >From the the settings window of Chromevox you can choose one of the voices made available by speech-dispatcher. For this to work, you need to have installed the chromevox extension. In a multilib environment, as root or using sudo: cd /usr/lib/chromium/extension wget http://the-brannons.com/kgejglhpjiefppelpmljglcjbhoiplfn.json But you also need to have the extension enabled. Edit either /etc/chromium.d/default-flags or whatever file includes the flags (in Slint it's /etc/chromium/00-default.conf), appending one line: CHROMIUM_FLAGS="$CHROMIUM_FLAGS --enable-speech-synthesis --enable-speech-dispatcher" To know more: https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+show/lkcr/docs/accessibility/chromevox.md Didier -- Didier Spaier Slint distribution http://slint.fr On 9/14/18 7:56 PM, Linux for blind general discussion wrote: > Hi, Pavel: > > It's actually surprising we can get as much accessibility support out of > Chrome and Chromium as we do because neither really supports the > accessibility API on Linux, namely ATK and AT-SPI. > > Here's a summary for Chromium: > ct > > I also found this page which sounds promissing: > https://www.chromium.org/developers/accessibility/linux-accessibility > > Best, > > Janina > > Linux for blind general discussion writes: >> Hi, >> >> I am Arch / Antergos uer now.
