Home Page Reader (Hpr) was a computer program, a self-voicing web browser designed for people who are blind.
The screen reader met World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) HTML 4.01 specifications, Web Content Accessibility Guidelines 1.0 and User Agent Accessibility Guidelines 1.0.
[citation needed] The program also had a peer-support mailing list.
[5][note 1] In summer 2002 a non-scientific study concluded that Hpr did not make any distinction between the built-in keyboard shortcuts for entering different modes and the access keys available on websites.
The research claimed that Hprs would do better to use links mode to cycle through a list.
