Hi
Just a thought, but I'm 99% sure there's POSIX calls for checking whether a
process is running. Could you check if the screenreaderd process is
running? This would probably require poling since I don't think there's
any notification-based APIs for this. I don't know if it'd work but this
is certainly a try, unless I've overseen something. :-)

Dear accesibility list members,
I'd like to find out whether VoiceOver is currently active. What is
the best way to find out? I would prefer some notification to avoid
polling.
I have noticed that there's AXEnhancedUserInterface child in
AXApplication set to TRUE when VoiceOver is active but cannot find it
in headers.
Can I safely rely on this value?
Tomas
