HI thom Jim might have answered you already but I'm going to answer you from how I feel., Uhm, the answer is actually very simple. Jim made the winkit program especially for those blind people who doesn't have any speech software. What if a blind person is not computer literate at all and choose not to buy a computer but can play kitchensinc games on a friend's computer, if jim would go for the standard install, then the blind person would have to rely on sighted assistance to guide him to the game he wants, now he can choose the game he wants, he doesn't tneed either sighted assistance or a screen reader. Or say for instance a friend gives a blind person a computer for free such as a birthday present, to play games on. The blind person will then use jim's winkit very handy as its self voicing, it's a self voicing list of games he can choose from. Basically he just need sappi installed. I hope my approach makes sense -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Thomas Ward Sent: Wednesday, September 05, 2007 1:50 AM To: Gamers Discussion list Subject: Re: [Audyssey] Kitchensinc games in vb6
Hi Jim, Well, the new and improved compatibility chart should appear in the fall/winter release of the Audyssey mag. By the way, just a question here. Why did you decide to make your own custom launcher program like Winkit when it would have been probably allot easier just to script an install with InnoSetup, and had a full installer with custom icons, program groups, etc? I'm truly interested as to why you felt going the way you did was better than a standardized install.
