Accerciser Description

Accerciser is an interactive Python accessibility explorer for the GNOME desktop. Accerciser is an interactive Python accessibility explorer for the GNOME desktop. It uses AT-SPI to inspect and control widgets, allowing you to check if an application is providing correct information to assistive technologies and automated test frameworks. Accerciser has a simple plugin framework which you can use to create custom views of accessibility information.In essence, this project is a next generation at-poke tool.Here are some key features of "Accerciser":ORBit, not cspi, based? Like the modern LSR and Orca screen readers, Accerciser uses pyORBit to talk AT-SPI with other applications. The legacy cspi module is avoided. Plugin architecture? Create a Python module, drop it in a folder, and have it load as a plugin pane with full access to AT-SPI and the selected element in the accessibility tree view. Interface browser and event monitor plugins? All the features you've come to expect from a poke tool, and then some. IPython console plugin? A full, interactive Python shell with access to the accessible object selected in the tree view; all AT-SPI interfaces, methods and attributes; and any other Python modules. Supports autocompletion and a million other niceties thanks to IPython. API browser plugin? Shows the interfaces, methods, and attributes available on the selected accessible object. Global hotkeys? Move the tree view quickly to the last focused accessible or the one under the mouse pointer. Insert a marker into the event monitor log for easy identification at a later time. Customizable UI layout? Move plugin tabs to different panels or even separate windows to view them concurrently. Accessibility!? Accerciser does not disable its own accessibility. Yelp documentation? Included in the package. Python powered? Brits, not serpents.Installation:svn co http://svn.gnome.org/svn/accerciser/trunk/ accercisercd accerciser./autogen.shmakesudo make installaccerciser Requirements: · GTK version 2.8.x · pygtk · ipython
