@acarson It works quite differently for everyone. I, for example, am totally blind, but played some ascii games such as Dungeon crawl stone soup. It wasn’t easy, but if the person really wants to do something, they can learn. On the other hand, half of these signs aren’t even processed by screenreaders if you turn off punctuation. That’s why I have several profiles in NVDA. One for everyday use, in which I turned off all kinds of punctuation. One for VS code, in which literally everything is turned on, so I have a better understanding of what’s happening in terms of punctuation. Earlier there was also a profile for such ascii games, in which all the punctuation was turned on, plus there were a few other settings changed. Besides that I speak multiple languages so I also have switch synth set to different synths, anyway for which I turned off punctuation.
