Hi Armando, A set file is a collection of all the settings which Window-Eyes can have. There is usually a set file for each program you run, and this set file is automatically loaded by Window-Eyes, and all of the settings it has are automatically used, each time you switch to a different program.
This means you could have punctuation characters being spoken in one program (like a word processor), and not being spoken in another program (like your email), because they use different set files, and you could have the punctuation set differently for each set file. It's a very powerful feature of Window-Eyes, and I hope you will get someone to help you learn window-eyes, or listen to their audio tutorials, or read the manual, so you can get the most from your computer.
