- The _a_c_c_e_s_s_x graphical interface allows movement-impaired users to set and
- activate special keyboard features. It uses the XKB extension built into
- the X server in IRIX 6.2 and later releases.
-
-
- The _a_c_c_e_s_s_x panel can be run from a Unix shell command line or from the
- toolchest (Desktop > Customize > Accessibility). Like most other IRIX
- Interactive Desktop (IID) customization panels, _a_c_c_e_s_s_x has the
- ``runonce'' feature, meaning only one instance of the application will
- run at one time. Attempting to launch the application a second time will
- have the effect of deiconifying the application window or popping it to
- the top on the current desk.
-
-
- The _a_c_c_e_s_s_x software has a main Status window and an accompanying
- Settings window. The following special keyboard features are
- configurable:
-
- MMMMoooouuuusssseeeeKKKKeeeeyyyyssss turns the user's keyboard number pad into a pointer controller,
- enabling the user to move the pointer without the mouse.
-
- BBBBoooouuuunnnncccceeeeKKKKeeeeyyyyssss makes the keyboard ignore spurious extra presses of a key.
-
- SSSSttttiiiicccckkkkyyyyKKKKeeeeyyyyssss causes modifier keys such as Shift, Ctrl, and Alt to latch and
- affect the next key pressed, such that modifier keys and other keys may
- be pressed in sequence instead of simultaneously.
-
- SSSSlllloooowwwwKKKKeeeeyyyyssss makes the keyboard ignore spurious presses of other keys on the
- way to a target key.
-
- RRRReeeeppppeeeeaaaattttKKKKeeeeyyyyssss lets the user toggle whether held keys are acknowledged
- repeatedly or just once.
-

- Users can define and save groups of settings as profiles. These profiles
- are saved in each user's $_H_O_M_E/._d_e_s_k_t_o_p-<_h_o_s_t_n_a_m_e>/_a_c_c_e_s_s_x directory. If
- this directory is not readable and writable, then the user may still set
- and activate customized settings, but they will not be remembered across
- login sessions.

- The _a_c_c_e_s_s_x graphical user interface uses the XKB extension built into
- the X server in IRIX 6.2 and later releases. The _a_c_c_e_s_s_x product ships
- with IRIX 6.5. In the future, it may also ship as a patch for IRIX 6.2.
