  • nmrename 1.0

    A long time ago I made a command-line based mass renaming tool called nmrename (Noneus’ Mass Renming Tool). Noneus was my old nickname. I use this program all the time and think it might be helpful to others. I made the 1.0 release on GiHub.

    Here is the help-text:

    Help for nmrename 1.0
    
    USAGE:
    C:\Apps\nmrename\nmrename.exe: [FILES ...] [COMMAND ...] ...
    
    Positions are indexes for the filename. Start an
    index with "-", if you want to start index counting
    from the end of the filename.
    
    COMMANDS:
    -h --help        : Print this help output.
    -d               : Rename folderstructure too. Be careful with "/"'s!

  • NVDA One Core AutoLang for NVDA 2022

    The C++ interfaced for the OneCore-API was changed in NVDA 2022.1.1:

    Moved the UWP/OneCore interaction layer of NVDAHelper from C++/CX to C++/Winrt. (#10662)

    What’s New in NVDA

    I used the the version and reimplemented automatic language switching. On the way I cleaned up the code and make it work in more cases, when more than one text block is processed at once.

    You can find the new version compatible with NVDA 2022.1.1+ here 0.2.0.

  • NVDA-Plugin to speak Text in detected language

    I’m using screenreaders for well over a year now. I constantly switch between English and German in emails, text, chats, etc. Many many times a day the screenreader would read German or English in the wrong voice, because it is not properly tagged. I October I bought a Macbook Air M1. VoiceOver on the M1 processor detectsds the language with artificial intelligence. Its very accurate and I wanted the same for my work and my gaming PC.

    So I developed a NVDA plugin called: NVDAOneCoreAutoLang

    It adds a new speech synthesizer, which is a modified version of the “Windows OneCore voices” synthesizer. After installation of my plugin a new synthesizer called “Windows OneCore voices (AutoLang)” is available. Before any text is spoken the plugin uses the fasttext language indentification model to guess the language. If a voice for this language is installed in Windows, the plugin uses that voice to speak the text. It defaults to the selected voice.

  • Hallo World!

    It’s the year 2021. This time I’m really making a homepage 🙂 I’m a legally blind engineer. Most content will be around my blindness. I might write about my two sports running and alpine skiing too. 🙂 Cheers!
