A very good response Peter, and I'm getting just a little bit peed off with this thread.
Why not go and look at Aaran's piece on 64 bit implementation and why it can't, won't, happen over night? My technical knowledge is very limited which is why I'd like someone to spell out for me what the possibilities of the GW model of scripting support could lead to, incuding I'd hope, some concreet examples. On a more mundane level, I do think that some accompanying model of -aid-for script development must surely accompany more advanced scripts, for their development to take place. I'd consider, for example, subscribing to an audio packages script set to enhance things like Sound Forge in an area such as, say, using the chaining processing feature in SF, not to mention thorough going support in dialogues such as the noise reduction plug-ins and graphic equalizers. I'm all confused too about where scripting ends, and core development of the uts of Window-Eyes takes over. Can anyone enlighten me? Ray.

Your typical user does not have a clue of what goes into a new, major release. Gee, they have already forgotten that Java support is now available, and that is a big deal in the business world! They do not, no doubt, realize what a big deal the new scripting facility is, and how it will, in the long term, offer users hitherto unimagined benefits. Doing it the right way takes a lot longer than slopping something together that fixes the current complaint, but does not anticipate future needs and requirements. Every user has his or her own pet complaints - I want better support for super tooltips in Word 2007, better support for grid controls in Word 2007, and so on - but these annoyances are just that; they do not effect my ability to access core functionality - which should always be the goal. Keep up the good work for another decade GW! Peter Duran If you reply to this message it will be delivered to the original sender only.
