Of course that depends on the keyboard: on the French (not Canadian French) keyboard, / is shifted, but * requires right Alt. I don't understand what the benefit of the alt text "Python" is here. Presumably if you are reading a document with embedded Python, you are expected to, and want to, read the Python, just as if you have an (English) document with embedded Greek, you probably want to read the Greek. All of these are text that you read, as opposed to images that you look at, which it makes sense to suppress. For that matter, I might suppress them myself, as I am still non-visual even though I now see perfectly, since I grew up seeing everything as blurred: seeing is *not* believing for me, unlike most of the sighted. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
