Well, in a previous version of the Slint installer I had included fbterm
to help
users with low vision, as it can display characters of an arbitrary size so
a small script in the installer computed the maximum character size with
which
the dialog boxes fit in the screen size considering the values of col
and lines.
But if people wanted speech (using speakup) I indeed had to not use fbterm.
To allow both speech and big character size at the same time I
considered using
nosh, as if I understand well it can provide an output as discrete
characaters
and in the frame buffer as the same time. At least that's how I read:
https://jdebp.uk/Softwares/nosh/brltty.html
Additionally if accurate this would kill two birds in one shot, allowing
both
speech and braille outputs.
Another thing that interest me in nosh is that if I understand well it
can be
used as a dbus launcher for systems that want to use dbus-broker but do not
include systemd (as a reminder, the launcher of dbus-broker is the sole
component of dbus-broker that needs systemd), after a quick read of:
https://jdebp.uk/Softwares/nosh/guide/per-user-dbus-demand-start.html
https://jdebp.uk/Softwares/nosh/guide/commands/dbus-daemon-launch-helper.xml
But (two big "but"):
1. So far I failed miserably to build the nosh package in Slint (end of
the log
attached)
2. I am not ready to replace Slint's init system by nosh (however,
according to
https://github.com/tacatac/archnosh nosh can be run as service manager only)
My dream would be that it would suffice to use the shell script
dbus-daemon-launch-helper to do that, this is just a dream, isn't it?
Sorry to have pushed this thread way out of tracks but thanks for reading.
Cheers,
Didier
