Hi steven.
Not supprised, I am testing the official beta and there are a lot of
bugs to iron out.
I have a patched version not ready for general release either but
its not complete.
Even my version of the demo is totally outdated.
Bare with us as we try to sort things.
I won't have time till maybe the next 2 weeks have gone as as wel as
work I have a probable falier of the primary coms node here and I
need to replace it.
THat can take some serious time.

Hi there.
I'm having trouble with the demo adventure, when I open the mail
box and try to get the paper, it tells me I can't get it, so I
tried "read"ing it, but that didn't work either.
am I doing something wrong? I'm also using jaws 11 and I can't
review the screen with the jaws cursor.

Hi Steven.
I'm replying to your message here to aide discussion. Firstly, I
think you might have got this a little wrong.
i'm not actually developing Eamon Deluxe, I've just helped with
beta testing and writing reviews, and am a fan of the system.
The developer is frank black, and you can reach him by the address
in the blog. Eamon always has, and will continue to be free.
the eamon site can be found at http://www.eamonag.org/index.html
and there is also an eamon deluxe page on audiogames.net, though
bare in mind that is severely out of date, sinse the old version 4
of Eamon deluxe from 2005, while just about runnable has some
compatibility issues and annoying habbits with screen readers and
takes a little jiggering to get to work. Needless to say though,
these have been utterly fixed in the new version, plus a lot of
access features added that weren't there before. In Fact frank is
doing a great job in terms of access, even going as far as
describing Ascii graphics, as well as allowing full access to
everything in text (previously there was a graphical main hall
that had some advantages over the text one, but that is now fixed).
Lastly as to platforms, yes, it's a shame, but there is no way
around it unfortunately sinse as I said the alternative is dosbox.
If you use windows 7 pro microsoft have produced a virtual xp
machine that can run 16 bit applications, or you can use software
such as vmplayer. I'm however not the person to ask about this
question, which is indeed why i have moved this discussion onto
the audeasy list, sinse there are more qualified people than me
here who can talk about it.
Hope this answers your question.
All the best,
Dark.
