Ed Sharp, an accessible text editor for screen reader users

I found out about this text editor for screen reader users who are writing code.

A couple of its most useful features are that it helps provide info about tabulation and formatting structure (keeping track of the levels can be really frustrating for screen reader users), and it can also be used to convert brf files into plaintext. I’m still at the reading the manual stage, so haven’t tried these features out yet.

I would be interested in hearing from anyone else who has used this editor.

Note: the GitHub site also has a download, but I couldn't get that one to work, so I used the first one I listed.

British TV mystery shows to stream

And for a bonus they all feature actresses and actors over 50. Actually, not all of these shows are British, but I was looking for shows that are smart and relatively low on violence--I've watched Ripper Street and I've read piles of Scandinavian noir, but I just can't handle anything that violent anymore. There's something about the weather getting colder that causes me to crave British mysteries.
