10139N/A<para><filename>at-spi</filename> is the Assistive Technology Service Provider
10139N/AInterface, which provides a set of client-side APIs for use by assistive technologies.
10139N/AAssistive Technologies are augmentative or adaptive technologies that make
10139N/Athe desktop user interface accessible to persons with disabilities.</para>
10139N/A<para>These APIs for assistive technology developers are available in two
10139N/Aforms.</para>

10139N/A<para>An AT-SPI client can use any programming language for which general
10139N/ACORBA language bindings are available (for example, Java, C, C++) and may
10139N/Ause any CORBA 2.2-compliant ORB. The client bindings are generated from the
10139N/Aabove IDL by a language-specific IDL compiler which is usually bundled with
10139N/AORBs. The GNOME 2 environment includes an efficient ORB with C bindings (ORBit2).
10139N/A</para>
10139N/A<para><filename>&cmd;</filename> AT-SPI clients may also use the C language
10139N/Abindings that are defined in <filename>&cmd;</filename> and documented in
10139N/Athe developer documentation.</para>
10139N/A<para>To access the developer documentation, you must install the developer
10139N/Aversion of the package.</para>
10139N/A<para>Such clients may also link to <filename>&cmd;</filename>, which provides
10139N/ACORBA server-side implementations of the Accessibility::EventLister interfaces
10139N/Awhich are used for AT-SPI event notification support.</para>
