Hi, Huican.
Unfortunately, applications written using the x/motif Libraries are largely
unaccessible to gui based screen readers. The scrreen readers for the X
Windows system are gnopernicus and orka which work with Gnome and the gtk+2
toolkit as well as well as apps built with java swing.
If an application is not built with java swing or gtk+2 the application
simply will be not accessible with x based screen readers.
Hth.
