- zozbot234 2y agoANSI escape sequences exist and are good enough for basic formatting like bold, italic, underlined etc.
- shakna 2y agoMost screenreaders also respect ANSI escapes! A lot are using a tty interface under the covers. However, HTML does not. Though, in my experience, getting Chrome to adopt something new, is easier than getting Dragon to fix a bug.
