Disabling more prompt in Glk libraries

Hi all

Does anyone know if there is any way to disable the displaying of more prompts in a Glk library? In particularly I am interesting Windows Glk. Even just a way to hack it to think that the screen is 1000 lines long would probably do. The reason I ask is that I have a friend that is having trouble with the more prompts clashing with his screen reader.

Regards,
Stuart

This will always be library-specific. I don’t run Windows, so I don’t know what that library offers.

Hacking it should be possible. Ideally, you’d want to make a set of consistent changes that would make the whole thing compatible with Windows screen-reading software, and then document that as an option.

Thanks Andrew. I’ve sent David Kinder an email to see what he suggests.

Windows Glk can read from a config file, but unfortunately this isn’t one of the settings.
