It would be nice to adjust the void live setup module to account for these via an additional kernel command line parameter. What do you think? |

I've tested the espeakup parts pretty well - (this should be added to the docs at some point) I think orca should maybe be a future effort: it is definitely harder to get working, and seems more complex to set up overall. |

espeakup is a screenreader for console environments they are a minimal increase to the size of the live images, but I think they are an important accessibility feature to add.

neither is enabled by default, but they are easily enabled via
ln -s /etc/sv/espeakup /var/serviceor runningorca -r(this should also be documented in void-docs eventually).Should these also be included in the rpi images and the various ROOTFS/PLATFORMFSes too?
Testing
live images for testing are here: https://devspace.voidlinux.org/abby/live-a11y/
enable-espeakupscript, maybe), to minimise the chance for errors in typing thelncommand without a screenreader (for users who need it)
