How to compile

On a Windows machine, you'll first need Visual Studio (the free version is fine). Once that's complete:

  1. Open a command prompt
  2. Find vcvarsall.bat in your VS installation path, then call it with x64 as it's argument. It will look something like: call "C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 11.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat" x64
  3. Run cl main.c -nologo -Zi -link user32.lib

That should compile and generate main.exe.

Building Emacspeak: Making GNU Emacs Accessible

In 2015, I started diving deeper into GNU Emacs because I saw its potential as an assistive technology. Not only as a way of providing better access to books and code for my students and clients, many of whom are blind, but also as a tool for creating more accessible content. Regular expressions and modes like Org, Markdown, and AucTex are extremely useful in the production of alternate formats.

Although I had used Emacs as a vanilla text editor off and on since the 90's, I didn't learn anything about the underlying Emacs Lisp (elisp) programming language until the end of 2015, when I got a hardcopy Emacs manual, quit my day job, and grew t
