As for me the most important features that will be useful for this purpose is full text communication with user (which can be easily converted to sound information doing minimal manipulations with OpenKore) and route functions of OpenKore (which allows user move more or less free without even seeing map). This idea is easier to realize that commons can imagine...

The young man does have a point about it being hard to make ro completely to a person with disabilities BUT I aimed high and specific on purpose. The goal does not need to be achieved today or the next day. I said this community will hopefully be around for a long time and hopefully OK and eAthena will be too. I have seen admins do some pretty awesome things with just the chat bar in RO and I have seen some very impressive bots in my time too. Why people do not wish to see bots as more than cheat programs is beyond me. I appreciate everyone's input. Sort of juggling a bit at the moment and Matt is busy as well. Right now I am touching base with the assistive technologies available to me. I love RO, I think it is the best thing since the GOTO command and if I can put in a little effort so that people the world over can appreciate the efforts of all the people that made RO and OK and opensource in general then I will gladly do that. Besides I am bloody tired or running around that hamster wheel...it's time we hauled our heads out of our asses and helped our brothers and sisters who can never experience to wonder of sight. Z/Z

The projects that can be aided using OK are on hold till the web-based hosting begins in a couple weeks. I thank you for all your input. People at eAthena are much too short-sighted...asking dumb questions like "How do you know there is a 'market' for an accessible RO?" as if I gave a crap...all I know is that if I had a little brother or sister who was blind and wanted to play RO with me then I would bend over backwards to make it happen.

The internet is the first attempt at a global community and we all must take steps to ensure all or brothers and sisters can join us here.

Ciao,
