Discussion of Text User Interfaces (TUI), and in particular <a href="https://github.com/Textualize/textual" target="_blank">https://github.com/Textualize/textual</a></div><div>3.

Ensure that a HTML version of all documentation is available.<br>2. Provide a way to translate long outputs into another accessible format.<br>3. Document the output structure for each command.<br>4. Provide a way to translate tables in CLI output into another accessible format.<br>5. Ensure that all commands provide status and progress indication.<br>6. Ensure that all status and progress indicators used are screen reader friendly.<br>7. Ensure that error messages are understandable when read aloud.<br></div><div><br></div><div>Many of these recommendations also apply to TUI.</div><div><br></div>The video from last month is available at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oVN09ae8GWc" target="_blank">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oVN09ae8GWc</a>.<br><br>Many of us are concerned about the conflict in Ukraine. Terry Tao (Fields Medallist) has made two helpful posts. The first is for scientists, particularly mathematicians, displaced by the conflict.</div><div><a href="https://terrytao.wordpress.com/2022/03/02/resources-for-displaced-mathematicians/" target="_blank">https://terrytao.wordpress.com/2022/03/02/resources-for-displaced-mathematicians/</a><br></div><div><br></div><div>The second is about the displaced ICM. Four year ago Saint Petersburg, Russia was chosen to be the venue for the 2022 International Congress of Mathematicians and associated IMU event (2 to 14 July). It will now take place as a fully virtual event, hosted outside Russia.</div><div><a href="https://terrytao.wordpress.com/2022/02/26/the-international-congress-of-mathematicians-icm-2022" target="_blank">https://terrytao.wordpress.com/2022/02/26/the-international-congress-of-mathematicians-icm-2022</a><br></div><div><br></div><div>with best regards</div><div><br></div><div>Jonathan</div></div>
