I wanna promote a new idea for this with Speech Synthesis instead of
short command i know this is a huge project but i dugg up the api for
windows and a link to linux but since we are still on the windows
platform we should probly focus on the windows api but i throwing this
up as a discussion since i for one wanna help out and improve our
software in these parts.

Bug description:
Dear,

I alert you about using dc++ with JAWS (Job Access With Speech) for Windows a screen reader dedicated to visualy aimpaired users.

Indeed, we have some troubles issues for using it with JAWS.

For exemple :
No possibility to switch between settings tabs with keyboard ;
Tab key doesn't work on PM (needed to read messages from others users) but works on main chat area ;
we cannot switch to almost client windows and read content with arrows without using mouse befor ;
no possibility to set special sound for main chat messages, PM and favorites users PM, important to know in which window we receved message ;
And much more ...

There for, i have to emulate mouse for some kind of those tasks but, it would be really great if all of them may be usable without this action (directly with keyboard) :)

Best regards
