Hi,

Actually, KmPlot can be completely controlled through DBus. For example, you 
can use the script

#! /bin/sh

process_id=`/bin/ps -fu $USER| grep "kmplot" | grep -v "grep" | awk '{print 
$2}'`
qdbus org.kde.kmplot-$process_id /parser org.kde.kmplot.Parser.addFunction 
"f(x)=2*sin(x)+3*cos(x)" ""

to build f(x)=2*sin(x)+3*cos(x)

Other documentation on this can be found here (the official KmPlot docs):

https://docs.kde.org/trunk5/en/kdeedu/kmplot/dbus.html

KmPlot interface should be accessible using Orca screen reader (not tested).

Hope this helps.

Best regards,
Yuri,
a kind of the current KmPlot maintainer
