Great! Seems to be the same process as connecting a network adapter to a virtual machine. That is a little discouraging I can’t compile on my MacBook. The native terminal doesn’t seem to be accessible. I can’t read the output line by line, only the entire output from top to bottom of the terminal. I could be missing something, I am still quite new to voiceover. Although I have talked with a couple of MacBook users that have used voiceover for quite a few years, they are not familiar with terminal, but still could not figure out how to navigate it easily either. Maybe the hardware synthesizer could help there. (?)

I assume that it should in theory, but if not because of the virtualization, then plan B is doing the exact same thing while booting from something like Ubuntu on the USB. > > Yes, that should work, though I haven't done that in a while.
