nvda remote control suite, a nvda remote client for mac os, anyone interested?
Back to Computers and Technology#1 karmien
Since i have just purcased my mba and still have my windows cloud server i am experementing with the nvda remote code base. In fact i am working at a client that allowes you to control nvda remote connected computers using the mac. You will not be able to control your mac through it due to obwious reasons but the other direction is not bad either, adleast for me. If people are interested i will also add key modes so the apple keyboard works more like the win keyboard, for example apple key redirects as left alt and stuff like that. So, is anyone interested in such a project, or is it unneeded? You will be able to see it on my github soon, i will post a link when its there.

i m interested. but you are wrong. you can actually control mac via windows computer. just send to your mac's ssh this command
osascript -e 'tell application "system events" to keystroke "a b c d e"'
it will type a b c d e.
so look to the applescript keystroke and key code manual
#3 karmien
Yeah but not really through nvda since as far as i know it is not really possible to forward voice over speech like that.
#4 bomberman29
yes. so to forward VO speech you must forward the sound from mac's microphone
#5 karmien
Yeah, but this is not how nvda remote works, nvda remote forwards the speech as text and it gets respoken.
#6 nuno69
Again, good luck.
#7 etno
I.m interested.
#8 hermis501
Sounds interesting.
#9 bomberman29
i don't know if voiceover speech can be forwarded, but, but, applescript has some voiceover related functions
tell application "voiceover"
do something
end tell
but i don't know, can i take last spoken text with this commands

Sounds very interesting. Do you have something up your Github already?
#11 karmien
No, not stable yet.
#12 aldenmaster
yeah you should do it
#13 Tschapajew
I am really interested in the project. You really should go for it.

you can have voiceover log everything it says and then send that as text back to NVDA and then use the command in an erlyer post to send keys
