Hi Its really great that both Aster and the Dectalk dependency are now available as open source. Considering it was written in the early 90s Aster is remarkably ahead of its time, Windows screenreaders have only really started to catch up in the last few years with their support for MathML. I managed to install everything and have got it to run on small regions of LaTeX files. I can't get the aster-file command to read in a whole file, it either does nothing or gives an error. I did notice a parsing issue, I often write simple fractions like \frac 12 and aster seems to parse this as a fraction with numerator 12 and no denominator. Correctly handling cases like this is probably very annoying and I suspect that if aster was to be written today the input format might be MathML so that parsing isn't so fiddly. Best wishes and thank you for the blogpost Alastair On 21/12/2022 15:22, T.V Raman via Emacspeak wrote: > > > _______________________________________________ > Emacspeak mailing list -- emacspeak(a)emacspeak.org > To unsubscribe send an email to emacspeak-leave(a)emacspeak.org
