Hello, The "download page" link found on this page: http://audiogames.net/db.php?id=Win+board does not link to our free chess program for the blind "Winboard 4.5 for JAWS", but rather to Freedom Scientific and the page were only the old, broken "Winboard for JAWS" may be found. Also, a URL is not provided and the title spells Winboard with a space inbetween Win and board. Please provide this link to the page containing the download: http://www.open-aurec.com/wbforum/viewt … mp;start=1 As has been stated the Chess program now works with the NVDA screen reader and is for the blind, low sighted and anyone who can not use a mouse to make it easy for them to pursue Chess with every advanced function available to sighted Chess players. Good Chess, Chess Dave.

Thanks for the links.

I'll see about fixing them and add a note to the description about nvda support, though testing all the features will be difficult for myself as I use Hal.

eddit: okay, I've done my best, though not being able to try the program it was a litle difficult sinse I just had to go on what was written on the main page.

As I said, for the future you might want to think about adding microsoft sapi support, sinse that way literally anyone! with a copy of windows could play the program, and more to the point, i could try it myself and write probably a better description.

I'm sorry if that one is inadequate.

With our dreaming and singing, Ceaseless and sorrowless we! The glory about us clinging Of the glorious futures we see,
Our souls with high music ringing; O men! It must ever be
That we dwell in our dreaming and singing, A little apart from ye. (Arthur O'Shaughnessy 1873.)
