Technical Notes
Following simple guidelines, developers can take advantage of built-in Mac OS X interfaces that make the user interface of their applications accessible to external assistive applications. An assistive application interacts with an application's user interface to provide an alternative way for persons with disabilities to use the application. For example, visually impaired users can use an assistive application to convert an application's menu items and button labels into speech and then relay their verbal commands to the application.
