Hi Joel,
While I personally have no physical Linux system, not finding a path to
either a synthesizer or screen reader that works for me, I am interested in
the work you are doing.
I imagine it would be possible to access the software via a Linux shell,
using my existing screen reader tools, much as I am doing right now.
There are certainly grant prospects, as well as your drawing resources
via traditional fundraising.
May I ask where you are located before directing you to options?
I dare say, much with other command line things in Linux, you will find
interested folks who may not experience sight loss.
I should add that Audacity, at least when I last tried it was fine in the
Mac environment too.
Best,
Karen

Hello List,
Over the years I've posted a few times about Nama, a
terminal-based multitrack digital audio workstation.
As I understand it, Audacity, one of the most popular
GUI-based free software audio applications, is accessible to
blind users on Windows, but lacking accessibility on Linux.
Nama runs on Linux, doesn't require X11, and is accessible
without working through a GUI layer. So, it's a much smaller
software stack.
I've reached a point where I'd like to bring other resources
into the project. I'm wondering if you're aware of sources
for grants for developing accessible software or
organizations that would be interested in supporting such
projects.
I'll appreciate any suggestions.
with my regards
Joel, Nama author
