what kinds of flash games do you play?
The hungry robot ate my signature so that is why I no longer have one!

I would have given up Windows long before I did if NVDA hadn't come out. I
really like that screen-reader. (yes, I donated LOL). It's easy to play flash
games with it still running, though I haven't tried stand-alone games yet. I'm
an occasional Windows user.

Hi Dark,
Yeah, I understand that. I certainly had no illusions about you
wanting to change screen readers. However, the basic thing I wanted to
say is that there isn't a quick and easy way to switch speech on and
off in Jaws the way you can in Supernova. Come to think of it I'm not
sure there is a quick way to do it in Window-Eyes either without
specially assigning a key for that purpose. So all and all I think
Supernova is a bit unique in its built-in ability to switch speech on
and off with a quick and easy keyboard command. The only other screen
reader I can think of that has a similar feature is NVDA.
Cheers!

Hi Tom.
It was really only idle curiosity sinse I certainly have no plans to switch
to Jaws. it's just that as I said I flick supernova's speech on and off all
the time (the key is ctrl )zero).
For example I am currently watching Star trek deep space 9. Obviously I
don't want to interupt dvd playback by supernova saying "spacebar" everytime
I play and paws etc, so I have the voice off. I did however configure the
time skip key to exactly the length of the theme tune, so that once I've
watched the initial teaser I can just hit pagedown and instantly skip to the
end without having to sit through the opening titles for 100 odd episodes.
This was fairly easy, I just hit ctrl c to bring Up Power dvd's
configuration settings and play with the number of seconds that the time
skip function actually skips, however obviously I had to go from opening the
configuration pannel (which I needed supernova for), to playing the dvd,
which I didn't to see if my time skip worked.
This is why I am curious sinse flicking the speech on and off is something I
always take for granted in supernova and use very frequently.
Beware the grue!
Dark.
