For example, blind users may want to combine OCR and text-to-speech software so the computer can read books to them; users with diminished eyesight can use large fonts and "magnifiers"; paralyzed users may use speech recognition to compose text or give commands. I have identified twenty-eight existing ports which would be suitable for this category: 1. ports/audio/festdoc 2. ports/audio/festival 3. ports/audio/festlex-cmu 4. ports/audio/festlex-oald 5. ports/audio/festlex-ogi 6. ports/audio/festlex-poslex 7. ports/audio/festogi-spanish 8. ports/audio/festvox-abc 9. ports/audio/festvox-don 10. ports/audio/festvox-el11 11. ports/audio/festvox-hvs 12. ports/audio/festvox-jph 13. ports/audio/festvox-kal16 14. ports/audio/festvox-kal8 15. ports/audio/festvox-ked16 16. ports/audio/festvox-ked8 17. ports/audio/festvox-mwm 18. ports/audio/festvox-ogirab 19. ports/audio/festvox-rab16 20. ports/audio/festvox-rab8 21. ports/audio/festvox-tll 22. ports/audio/rsynth 23. ports/audio/sphinx 24. ports/graphics/claraocr 25. ports/x11/dynamag 26. ports/x11/lupe 27. ports/x11/xlupe 28. ports/x11/xzoom I brought this idea up on the ports list recently. I have seen no responses. >How-To-Repeat: N/A >Fix: N/A >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-ports" in the body of the message
