@jluk yep, haven't started yet though so not 100% on how long it will take.

Reading the letter back when it's deleted from the prompt does not seem trivial as the prompt line gets re-written when typing:

The following work in NVDA:

  • Hovering a line to read it out
  • Typing reading out the letter that was added

The following does not work:

  • Backspace reading out the letter that was deleted
  • Moving left/right in the prompt reading the letter on the cursor
  • Running a command reading the output (nothing happens)
