Bug Description
Dear,
I alert you about using dc++ with JAWS (Job Access With Speech) for Windows a screen reader dedicated to visualy aimpaired users.
Indeed, we have some troubles issues for using it with JAWS.
For exemple :
No possibility to switch between settings tabs with keyboard ;
Tab key doesn't work on PM (needed to read messages from others users) but works on main chat area ;
we cannot switch to almost client windows and read content with arrows without using mouse befor ;
no possibility to set special sound for main chat messages, PM and favorites users PM, important to know in which window we receved message ;
And much more ...
There for, i have to emulate mouse for some kind of those tasks but, it would be really great if all of them may be usable without this action (directly with keyboard) :)
Best regards

Ideally, all bug reports or RFEs should be filed separately...
<Tab key doesn't work on PM (needed to read messages from others users) but works on main chat area ;
I don't get it, what should tab do in PMs? There are no other users to tab complete...
<we cannot switch to almost client windows and read content with arrows without using mouse befor ;
I'm sorry, but I really don't understand what you've written here. What are "client windows"? If you mean hub windows, well, I can scroll through the chat with the arrow keys... But I don't think that's what you mean.
<no possibility to set special sound for [..], PM
Hm? There is a setting for PMs. (Not per favorite user, though.)
<And much more ...
Yeah, but what are they?
