Do you have any special needs ?
Karen mentioned a hardware speech synth, so desktop environments likely
need to fit good to the speech synth. Seemingly software solutions such
as Orca and what ever might be available for the terminal, are not that
comfortable.
I guess the shortcuts first mentioned by Len are the best way to get
access to command line and perhaps BRLTTY as mentioned by F. Silvain is
the way to get output from command line. IIRC Julien or somebody else
from this list once had issues installing a distro using Braille,
because the installer didn't provide BRLTTY. IOW Karen might need help
to install a distro, before the speech synth can be used.
