Home Page Reader (Hpr) was a computer program, a self-voicing web browser designed for people who are blind. It was developed by IBM from the work of Chieko Asakawa at IBM Japan. The screen reader met World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) HTML 4.01 specifications, Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 and User Agent Accessibility Guidelines 1.0. In 2006, it was announced on the Hpr mailing list that IBM ''does not have plans for any further updates of HPR'' and the software was subsequently withdrawn from sale by IBM in December 2006. IBM has given code to be used as a Firefox extension. It has been superseded by IBM Easy Web Browsing. The program also had a peer-support mailing list.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=BLIST: The Comprehensive Index of Blindness-Related Emailing Lists )〕〔Its archives were available at http://www.talklist.com/forms/ibm-hpr〕 ==Criticism== In summer 2002 a non-scientific study concluded that Hpr did not make any distinction between the built-in keyboard shortcuts for entering different modes and the access keys available on websites. The research claimed that Hprs would do better to use links mode to cycle through a list. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「IBM Home Page Reader」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
