Subject: [gui-talk] Blind Programmers

Hi,

I am a blind programmer for the City of Madison, Wisconsin.  Currently I
program in Progress - I started out in COBOL in 1985.  Over the years my IT
department has changed direction.  I still work on old Progress
applications, but they are slowly going away.  I am trying to find a place
to stay busy and useful in my department, and also get back some work hours
I gave up after my baby was born.  Would some blind programmers be willing
to write to me off list and let me know what programming languages and
development tools you use.  I'd also be interested in the screen reader or
screen readers you use.  This would help me with my meeting with management.
I would appreciate any input you are willing to give me.

Thank you.

Jodi
