Hi, I haven't used a screen reader, but I think it could mess with graphicals interfaces. Perhaps if you could tell us with screen reader are you using we can install it a see which dificulties are involved when using it, and may be dev-cpp could be improve for blind people. By the way, to use g++ from the command line you have to (I assume that you have done the default installation, this means that you have installed devcpp in c:\dev-cpp\bin): 1- Edit the program with notepad (or another text editor, it dosen't matter wich one while it save the file in plain text), for a first try, save it in c:\dev-cpp\bin, and named it first.cpp . 2- Open a console, this could be achived by pressin windows + R, this open a windows where you must write cmd, and then press enter, or go to Start -> Accesories -> System Simbol. I use windows XP in spanish, so I not sure if this is totally correct. 3- Well, now you have a console windows, some times called msdos window. This come from the golden days of msdos, if you are 16 perhaps you haven't used this operating system. 4- now type: cd c:\dev-cpp\bin and press enter 5- cd comes from change directory, so know you are in c:\dev-cpp\bin . 6- to compile type: mingw32-c++ first.cpp -o first.exe and press enter 7- after some seconds you should have the program compiled 8- to run it type: first and press enter 9- the Hello world messages appears on the screen. I must say that I really don't know if screen readers works with console windows, I hope yes. Rafa Rios |
