Re: [orca-list] accessible daisy player software

[Willem van der Walt <wvdwalt csir co za>]

Hi,
There is idair which works for daisy 2002 but it is console-based.
There is also listen-up, but that would not play modern books.
I have never tried, but I think idair should work from a gnome terminal.
You can find idair from:
http://superb-east.dl.sourceforge.net/sourceforge/idair/idair-0.8.3.linux.bin.tgz
Listen-up is available from: http://linux-speakup.org/listenup.html
There is another project on sourceforge called DaisyDelight, written in 
python which has a lot of potential.
I made it work under Linux but it is not ready for use yet.
It has a basic text interface and a tk interface.
It would be relatively easy to give it another interface.
The problem is for now, that it does not go into the lower levels of a 
book, so you would just hear the contents, forward and cover information 
and not the actual contents of the book.
HTH, Willem
