--force-renderer-accessibility not working lately

[Linux for blind general discussion]

So...


1. Open up .bashrc (if you're using bash, I'm not sure what it is for 
tcsh/zsh/fish/etc)


2. Add this line at the end. I put it after the very end of the file, 
with a line break to seperate exporting variables to make it easier to 
read. Put the following in your .bashrc and save it

export ACCESSIBILITY_ENABLED=1


Save it, and open up a terminal, and check the variables with listvars


You should see ACCESSIBILITY_ENABLED=1 in the list. Now, try the 
--force-renderer-accessibility  flag again
