Actually, the costumer service person sounded quite open to the idea of making Real Basic compatible with VO. She seemed to think, however, that the more blind people who go on record as being interested in the product, the more likely it is that the folks at the company who are in charge will

RE: Please help make Real Basic compatible with VO

Real Basic is around $100. One major advantage of using it over languages like Python is that, when you write a Real-Basic program for one platform (e.g., macintosh) it works on others (e.g., Windows, Linux). Anyway, it never hurts to have options, and as you know, the visually impaired communi

I looked into SPSS a couple of years ago, and the Mac version was no more accessible than the Windows version. The best bet, I think, is to write software to calculate whatever stats one needs (or to have someone else do so, if one does not know how to code). The Python programming language ap
