Scripts are so small. They use up hardly any system resources whatsoever. They require very little from your CPU. I have over 60 global scripts that load when window-eyes starts, and I see absolutely no performance degradation. So feel free to install and use global scripts. I think you will find that there is no need for concern. I hope this information helps.

There's only so many scripts you can have before you start hitting problems. That also very much depends on the type of spec machine you have as well. Remember for every thing you have running, including scripts, that takes up additional resources. -----Original Message----- From: Juan Hernandez [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 20 January 2009 13:57 To: 'Darren Harris'; [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: RE: Observations about the Concept of the Script This may be right at times, but take the winamp scripts, these scripts are an amazing addition to those of us that use winamp. Yes you will find bugs, but I have never found them to make the application unstable. And the winamp author strives to keep up with problems, and he does a great job of it. That's just my opinion. Have a great day. -----Original Message----- From: Darren Harris [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Tuesday, January 20, 2009 5:47 AM To: [email protected]; [email protected] Subject: RE: Observations about the Concept of the Script Hi, Oh I just turn the scripts off, since I moved over from jaws to wineyes, I found that I just didn't need them. Also I think that overall to many scripts make what ever programme that you're using unstable in the long run. -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: 20 January 2009 13:40 To: [email protected] Subject: Observations about the Concept of the Script Back when JAWS had scripts and Window-Eyes did not, one of the arguments posed against scripting, and an argument that was used loudly and often, was that scripts would be used to add functionality that was never intended for a screen reader. I find it interesting, therefore, that now that Window-Eyes has implemented scripting, one of the most talked-about scripts is one which goes to a site on the Internet and returns weather forecasts and conditions. Many of the same people who use this script regularly and rave about it are the same people who accused JAWS users of wanting non-screen-reader-related functionality. To me, this all seems very ironic. Thank you.--D.K. If you reply to this message it will be delivered to the original sender only.
