NAME
yasr (Yet Another Screen Reader) - is an attempt at a lightweight, portable screen reader.
SYNOPSIS
yasr [ -C config file ] [ -c ] [ -s synthesizer ] [ -p synthesizer port ] [ program arg1 arg2 ... argN ]
DESCRIPTION
yasr is a lightweight, portable screen reader. It works by opening a shell in a pty and intercepting all user input/output, maintaining a
window of what should be on the screen by looking at the codes and text sent to the screen. It only requires that the user be able to
access the text to speech (TTS) device.
yasr was originally designed in conjunction with a Speak-out TTS device. Yasr also attempts to support DEC-Talk, DoubleTalk, Apollo, and
ViaVoice Outloud, but more work is needed to get these to work fully. It may be able to work with Emacspeak servers, however.
Currently yasr has two sets of keymaps, one for "review mode" (ie, reviewing the screen) and one for the standard mode. Keys defined for
the standard mode are checked irrespective of whether the user is in review mode or standard mode, but the review mode keymap is checked
first in the former case.
OPTIONS
-C config file
The configuration file that yasr should use.
-c Attempts to emulate bash's -c command. It runs /bin/sh, passing it the arguments that were passed to yasr.
-s synthesizer
The TTS synthesizer to use in conjunction with yasr.
-p synthesizer port
The port that the TTS synthesizer is connected to.
yasr will also fork and exec a program to run, if it (and any optional command line arguments it needs) are given as the last command line
arguments.
KEYBOARD SETTINGS
Review mode
spacebar
Say review cursor position.
^ Move to the first character on the line, and say word.
$ Move to the last character on the line, and say word.
b Say previous character.
c Say character.

e Read from cursor to bottom of screen.
f Search for text on the screen.
< Search from cursor to top of screen, using the previously-entered search string.
> Search from cursor to bottom of screen, using the previously-entered search string.
k Move up a line and read the line (currently same as up arrow).
l Say current line.
m Move down a line and read the line (currently same as down arrow).
n Bypass (send directly to the application).
