Hi. I'm writing this because I know how this mod can be improved alot. If possible, can you integrate the output and the prompt in the same window? Instead of changing to windows to read to output, will be more faster just press tab to go into the output and tab again to return to prompt. Also will be good to add an ability to the mod to make the screen reader auto speak, like this program made by a user on audiogames.net, wich makes that happen. the mod can be found here: https://github.com/pitermach/ReadTheSpire

Hello,

So I've already tried to make the prompt have output in the same window. It does work but makes the game very laggy. The issue is that all the output windows are running on a separate thread from the main game because of how the windows work. No other window than the Standard Widget Toolkit that I've found works with screen readers so I don't have much choice. This means that if I use the prompt in this other thread I will need to implement thread synchronization to grab the commands which is where the lag is from.

I know about the mod Read the Spire and I decided that rather than make my own I linked it from the Readme. Their mod works well so I see no reason to remake it. Not to mention doing so would take credit away from them.

Thanks, Wensber

O I see. Anyway this mod works very nice. Thanks for your answer and really, thanks to make and improve this mod for us. This is a very fun game. Would be very nice to have a output in the same tab for navigation speed, but I understand your point and the pain to do such task.
