New submission from Martin Meredith <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: Recently, a blind user posted on Stack Overflow asking whether there was something that would allow them to use braces within python.
They have a point, with only tabs being show in the editor, it can be very confusing for a blind user using a braille output, or a screen reader to be able to tell exactly where in a code block they are. Specific Code Block Markers would allow them to understand this in a more definate manner. The question can be found at http://stackoverflow.com/questions/118643 Along with some suggestions. It would be nice if this issue could be resolved in some manner. I understand obviously, that the fact that python doesn't use braces etc is why people like it, but the fact that this causes issues so that python is barely usable by unsighted persons is something that I think should be addressed. ---------- components: Interpreter Core messages: 73612 nosy: Mez severity: normal status: open title: Usability issue from not being able to use defined start and end code block markers versions: Python 2.1.1, Python 2.1.2, Python 2.2, Python 2.2.1, Python 2.2.2, Python 2.2.3, Python 2.3, Python 2.4, Python 2.5, Python 2.6, Python 2.7, Python 3.0, Python 3.1 _______________________________________ Python tracker <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> <http://bugs.python.org/issue3942> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
