Personally, I prefer windows explorer to manage my files. That's what I've
been doing with my stream. and will do the same with the book sense.

Hum. Well myself I've never found stream companion all that useful,
although I know some people like it. Wouldn't a window-eyes script to
sort your mp3's and such freeze out jaws users a bit? Seems like there
might be a hue and cry about window-eyes going proprietary and forcing
people into gw products and the unfareness of it all and so on.
I'm wondering if it might be more stable going through a Stand alone
program anyway. Window-eyes scripts can be wonderful, powerful,
versatile, and so on, but they can also be unstable and cause crashes
because they rely on a back end that frankly leaves a bit to be desired
in the stability department. I'm wondering if we wouldn't get some
frustrated users complaining that their microsoft com automation server
thingy is crashing when they truy to put things on their book sense.

Hey guys. You all probably know that there is a program which runs on a
computer to help the Victor stream folks get the files into the right
places on the stream, why not write a script to run from within
Window-Eyes to do similarly?
Putting all the files in the right places on the Book Sense is going to
be daunting for some, plus unzipping and copying folder(s) from within
those *.zips as such into DAISY folders, NLS, book share, etc. plus
podcasts, and / or other kinds of books and music, potentially an
integration into Window-Eyes scripting could be done without too much
effort since it may not be too hard a task for those bright scripters
out there to tackle.
In that way, a book sense companion script could be doing all and more
than the human ware companion does now, since it can be daunting for a
beginner to do all that is needed easily and not making a hash of it
all. We wish to avoid discouraging those willing to do what is
necessary, particularly to upload the books onto the Book Sense, book
share or otherwise, and have them all in the right places without too
many hoops to jump through.
