Our erstwhile companion Mr Anson is currently wired to machines that go ping in the cardio ward of the local hospital and has asked if I could put the following to the knowledgeable folk of ALUG.
Could any body comment on the availability of a good Linux speech-operated program to suit a totally unsighted person.
Thanks
Nev on behalf of Tony.

Not sure if this is of any help but I spotted it while perusing the Raspberry Pi forum - https://www.raspberrypi.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=41&t=49634
