Agrip

The of this project aim is to provide access to the mainstream gaming community not by producing specialist "accessible games" but by making mainstream games - and their associated extension and development tools - accessible. Downloads include an accessible version of Quake, the popular PC game.

AutoHotKey

An open source macro style program that can re-map the mouse, keyboard and joystick functions as well as automate pretty much anything!

AutoIT

AutoIt v3 is a freeware BASIC-like scripting language designed for automating the Windows GUI and general scripting. It uses a combination of simulated keystrokes, mouse movement and window/control manipulation in order to automate tasks in a way not possible or reliable with other languages (e.g. VBScript and SendKeys). AutoIt is also very small, self-contained and will run on 95, 98, ME, NT4, 2000, XP, 2003 out of the box with no annoying "runtimes" required! You can even make compiled executable scripts that can run without AutoIt being installed!

AutoTextTyper

AutoTextTyper is a contextual menu plugin that lets you quickly and easily add commonly used text, such as email addresses, web sites, postal addresses, etc... You can then select any of those items from the menu and have them automatically typed into any application that supports contextual menus.

CCHotKey

Mac OSX CCHotKey is a small and simple application that launches any script you want after clicking any hotkey you want.

Click-Catch

Click-Catch(C) is an autoclicker. It means it simulates mouse clicks with constant intervals of time.

Eventcorder

Eventcorder records and plays back Windows events. With Eventcorder, a sequence of keystrokes and mouse-clicks can be implemented at the touch of a single button.

Hotspots

Hotspots is now open source and public domain or free software. It may be used by a number of users on one computer or by one user on a number of different computers.

MacroMaker

MacroMaker allows you to build a macro to simulate a series of keystrokes and mouse clicks, execute built-in functions or play back a previous recording with just a keystroke. Therefore sequences of keystrokes and mouse clicks can be activated with minimal movement.

Mouse Smoothing Software

Assistive software for people with hand tremor.

RemoteKeys

RemoteKeys can automate complex control systems, but also simple jobs like inserting text passages into Word and Emails. Automation allows complex sequences of keystrokes and mouse clicks to be carried out at the touch of a button. Note: Freeware.

Special Access To Windows

Software that enables Windows to be controlled by one or two switches,a joystick, a trackerball or a headpointer. SAW 5 has many additions and feautures to make creating interfaces easy for those who use alternative inputs.

Speech Dasher

Speech Dasher is a novel interface for the input of text using a combination of speech and gestures. A speech recognizer provides the initial guess of the user's desired text while a gesture-based interface allows the user to confirm and correct the recognizer's output.

Talking Notes for Powerpoint
