The option for index that I'd like to have is to have it spoken first and
then the file info. When in a list of files and folders in a folder, it
has to read the entire line of filename, size, type, date, time, and more
depending on the file type, before it tells the index item number. I'd
like the index number given first so I won't have to wait for all that to
find out where I am. If that seems like to much chatter when you don't
want it, perhaps there's a keystroke that can be assigned to give the index
on demand.
Also, is it possible to have a sort of progress indicator as to how far
into a file we are when reading. It would need to be a hot key like
reading a progress bar so that it did not speak while reading through a
document. I just want some way to find out if I'm getting close to the end
or barely into a document and should save the finishing of it until
later. I believe there is a visual indicator of this position in scroll
bars in Word and the like, but I don't have anything like this in Notepad
or Wordpad or email messages. I actually wondered about this recently when
reading the text displayed when upgrading WE. It was a huge file. If I'd
known how long it was going to take me to read it, I'd have used the Later
button.
I have not even tried to get into scripts yet, but maybe a script can be
written to basically performa a macro to bring up the WE control panel,
choose a menu option or dialog, and select a particular option. I'm not
sure if scripts can be made to work like a macro; but, if they can, then
another would need to be made to reverse the selection. I guess this would
need a hot key to run the script. I don't know if this works or not. Just
a thought from a pre-novice WE scriptor.
Thanks!
