Yasr er en almen konsolskærmlæser for GNU/Linux og andre Unixlignende operativsystemer. Navnet »yasr« er et akronym, som kan stå for enten »Yet Another Screen Reader« (endnu en skærmlæser) eller »Your All-purpose Screen Reader« (din almene skærmlæser).

I øjeblikket forsøger yasr at understøtte synthesizerne Speak-out, DEC-talk, BNS, Apollo og DoubleTalk. Programmet kan også kommunikere med Emacspeak-servere og kan dermed bruges med synthesizere som ikke direkte er understøttet, såsom Festival Lite (via eflite) eller FreeTTS.

Yasr er skrevet i C og fungerer ved at åbne en pseudo-terminal og køre en skal, der opfanger alle inddata og uddata. Programmet kigger på undvigesekvenser der sendes og vedligeholder et virtuelt »vindue« indeholdende hvad der menes at være på skærmen. Det bruger derfor ikke nogen funktioner specifikke for Linux og kan derfor flyttes til andre Unixlignende operativsystemer uden stor besvær.
