I'm working with someone who has a visual impairment to the extent that magnification software is no longer of benefit. I'm trying to acquaint them with a standard qwerty keyboard with screen reading controlled by keystrokes only. Is there anything which would announce a key press but delay sending it to the window with the focus? I'd like to have a means of the key press being announced, then only sending the character if that key is held down beyond a given time threshold. I've only considered this with the screen reading part of Supernova so far, which announces the character only once it appears in the text window - too late. I haven't experimented with Jaws or any of the simpler screen reading applications. Thought you may save me some time. Thanks, Marcus.
