Announce News Post #2748

Screen reader follow up (ref: announce 2747)

Written by: Clementius, the Weaver
Date: Friday, March 28th, 2008
Addressed to: Everyone


As I noted in a recent announce (2747), we added a new feature at that time for those who use screen readers.

Now there's a second _and_ a third!

The original feature is a tool to help you find your way at sea, or ashore on the wilderness map. It relates to locating nearby harbours.

The first new feature, available the exclusive club of those who are likely to need it most, which is to say users of screen reader software, is aimed primarily at ship captains. It is called SEASQUINT and allows that special person to sense details about open ocean and barriers to sailing (again, in a manner more suited to your special way of relating to Achaea).

The second late-breaking new feature is for all. It suppresses the '-' in the prompt if you have a setting of CONFIG PROMPT OFF.

Thanks to our early adopters for taking the time to explain the problems so we can look for solutions and all have more fun!

Penned by my hand on the 6th of Daedalan, in the year 476 AF.
