- ATK
- 'Accessibility' means enabling people with disabilities to participate in substantial life activities that include work and the use of services, products, and information. GNOME Accessibility is the suite of software services and support in GNOME that provides accessibility interfaces to other applications and toolkits.
- Accerciser
- Accerciser is an interactive Python accessibility explorer for the GNOME desktop. It uses AT-SPI to inspect and control widgets, allowing you to check if an application is providing correct information to assistive technologies and automated test frameworks. Accerciser has a simple plugin framework which you can use to create custom views of accessibility information.
- AllTray
- AllTray is software that allows users to dock any application into the system tray. You can dock (for example) Mozilla Thunderbird, Evolution, and even terminals. A highlight feature is that a click on the close button of an application will minimize it to the system tray. It works well with Gnome, KDE, XFCE 4, Fluxbox, and WindowMaker.
- At-spi
- AT-SPI is a D-Bus based accessibility framework. It defines a D-Bus protocol for providing and accessing application accessibility information. The project includes a library for bridging the D-Bus protocol to the ATK API, allowing Gtk based applications to be made accessible. It also contains a client (AT) side library in C and a wrapper for Python.
- Brltty
- BRLTTY is a daemon which provides access to the GNU/Linux console (text mode) for a blind person using a soft braille display. It drives the braille terminal and provides complete screen review functionality. The web site has a complete list of braille display models that are supported. Features include blinking cursor and capital letters, screen freezing for leisurely review, attribute displays and attribute underlining to locate highlighted text, hypertext links, intelligent cursor routing for easy cursor movement without moving your hands from the braille display, a cut and paste function, on-line help, and a modular design that lets you add drivers relatively easily.
- CMUSphinx- PocketSphinx
- Sphinx is a speaker-independent large vocabulary continuous speech recognizer. It is also a collection of free software tools and resources that allows researchers and developers to build speech recognition systems. The packages that the CMU Sphinx Group is releasing are a set of reasonably mature, world-class speech components that provide a basic level of technology to anyone interested in creating speech-using applications without the once-prohibitive initial investment cost in research and development; the same components are open to peer review by all researchers in the field, and are used for linguistic research as well. PocketSphinx is CMU's fastest speech recognition system. It uses Hidden Markov Models (HMM) with semi-continuous output probability density functions (PDF). Even though it is not as accurate as Sphinx-3 or Sphinx-4, it runs at real time, and therefore it is a good choice for live applications. You can find further documentation about PocketSphinx in the release documentation, or at the online documentation.
- CMUSphinx- Training
- Sphinx is a speaker-independent large vocabulary continuous speech recognizer. It is also a collection of free software tools and resources that allows researchers and developers to build speech recognition systems. The packages that the CMU Sphinx Group is releasing are a set of reasonably mature, world-class speech components that provide a basic level of technology to anyone interested in creating speech-using applications without the once-prohibitive initial investment cost in research and development; the same components are open to peer review by all researchers in the field, and are used for linguistic research as well. SphinxTrain is CMU Sphinx's training package. It trains models in Sphinx-3 format, which is also used by PocketSphinx. The Sphinx-2 format can also be converted to Sphinx-2 format under some conditions related to Sphinx-2's limitations. At this point, Sphinx-4 uses Sphinx-3 models.
- CMUSphinx- base
- Sphinx is a speaker-independent large vocabulary continuous speech recognizer. It is also a collection of free software tools and resources that allows researchers and developers to build speech recognition systems. The packages that the CMU Sphinx Group is releasing are a set of reasonably mature, world-class speech components that provide a basic level of technology to anyone interested in creating speech-using applications without the once-prohibitive initial investment cost in research and development; the same components are open to peer review by all researchers in the field, and are used for linguistic research as well.
- CMUSphinx2
- Sphinx is a speaker-independent large vocabulary continuous speech recognizer. It is also a collection of free software tools and resources that allows researchers and developers to build speech recognition systems. The packages that the CMU Sphinx Group is releasing are a set of reasonably mature, world-class speech components that provide a basic level of technology to anyone interested in creating speech-using applications without the once-prohibitive initial investment cost in research and development; the same components are open to peer review by all researchers in the field, and are used for linguistic research as well. Sphinx-2 is a fast speech recognition system, the predecessor of PocketSphinx. It is not being actively developed at this time, but is still widely used in interactive applications. It uses Hidden Markov Models (HMM) with semi-continuous output probability density functions (PDF). Even though it is not as accurate as Sphinx-3 or Sphinx-4, it runs at real time, and therefore it is a good choice for live applications. You can find further documentation about Sphinx-2 in the release documentation, or at the online documentation.
- CMUSphinx3
- Sphinx is a speaker-independent large vocabulary continuous speech recognizer. It is also a collection of free software tools and resources that allows researchers and developers to build speech recognition systems. The packages that the CMU Sphinx Group is releasing are a set of reasonably mature, world-class speech components that provide a basic level of technology to anyone interested in creating speech-using applications without the once-prohibitive initial investment cost in research and development; the same components are open to peer review by all researchers in the field, and are used for linguistic research as well. Sphinx-3 is CMU's state-of-the-art large vocabulary speech recognition system. It uses Hidden Markov Models (HMM) with continuous output probability density functions (PDF). It supports several modes of operation. The more accurate mode, known as the "flat decoder", is descended from the original Sphinx-3 release (still available for reference purposes at https://cmusphinx.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/cmusphinx/trunk/archive_s3/s3). The faster mode, known as the "tree decoder", was developed separately. The two decoders were merged in Sphinx 3.5, though the flat decoder was not fully functional until Sphinx 3.7. Further documentation can be found in the release documentation, or at the online documentation.
- Clara OCR

- Emacspeak
- Emacspeak is a suite of task-oriented tools that, through Emacs, provides speech-enabled access to the Web. With support for the freely downloadable IBM ViaVoice Outloud speech synthesis engine, Emacspeak makes GNU/Linux systems the first zero-cost (commercially available screenreaders typically double the cost of a personal computer) Internet access solution for blind and visually impaired users. Emacspeak speaks the underlying information of a visual display, not its contents. For example, if you use a calendar application with a screenreader you hear a sequence of meaningless numbers, but Emacspeak speaks the relevant date in an easily understood manner. The system uses audio formatting to increase the band-width of aural communication; changes in voice characteristic and inflection combine with non-speech auditory icons to create the equivalent of spatial layout, fonts, and graphical icons. This provides contextual feedback and shifts some of the burden of listening from the cognitive to the perceptual domain. The program comes with a default set of auditory icons; they can be replaced with any of the themes available (typically higher quality recordings).
- EncNotex
- EncNotex is a free multiplatform software, which runs natively on GNU/Linux, Windows and macOS, that is useful to write and to manage a file of strongly encrypted textual notes and tasks. It’s aim is to grant the user an highly secure tool to manage very confidential data. For this reason EncNotex uses the AES 256 bit encryption, cipher mode CBC and SHA 512; the user cannot save unencrypted data on the disk, but only copy it in the clipboard; the required password to encrypt a file is necessarily 10 characters long or more, chosen at least from three of these four groups: small and upper case letters, numbers and other characters (asterisk, brackets, etc.); optionally, the password used to save a file could be forgotten by the software and typed again by the user each time a file is to be saved, so that the same password does not remain in the computer’s memory while the software is being used. A file of EncNotex is a textual encrypted file containing many notes (no database is used). To grant a perfect compatibility of data among the different platforms and to be very fast even with big amount of data, EncNotex has a very simple structure of notes. They cannot have pictures inside nor attachments, but their text can be formatted in bold, italic and underline. Every note has a title, a list of tags (keywords) separated by comma and space, a date and a free-length text, and can be printed. The title and the date of every note is shown in a read only grid on the left of the interface of the software, and a note can be shown selecting its title in this grid. Furthermore, in the same grid the title of a note can be indented or deindented, to make it a subnote of the previous one, or moved up and down, along with its possible subnotes. At the left of the text of the notes there is an outlook of its titles, which can be used to reach easily one of them, and of the possible tasks along with their deadline. The tasks of all the notes of a file can be summarized in a list, sorted, filtered and copied in the clipboard to be pasted in a spreadsheet, or saved in csv or ics format. It's possible to search for a note within the titles, the tags, the dates and the texts. A note or all the notes of a file can be copied in the clipboard in HTML format and then pasted in a word processor maintaining the possible HTML tags. Finally, two independent backup files are automatically created when a file is loaded and when it's saved.
