that's a really good idea, actually. So in other words, could you create some sort of vb template to use for touch-based interaction and then just apply it to all window-eyes apps? Winamp would be a good trial for something like that. I have an android tablet and haven't a clue as to what I'm doing with it, just bought it as a toy, really. But I gotta say that I'd love to beta test a touch system for we, although to play devil's advocate, or I suppose this would be keyboard's advocate, this would mean coding for another interface on top of the keyboard one for window-eyes which also of course now included the insert key layout. So maybe there are too many interfaces?

Ok just so everyone knows winamp isn't going away after all. this is good news for those of us who use a screen reader like window-eyes. The winamp accessability threw the winamp app is wonderful. Thanks jeff for all the good work here and keep it up.

It will be interesting to see what can be done with touch and winamp do to the fact that the other screen readers I have tried here doesn't really work with touch.

This is another reason touch modes need to be added to apps. So lets say you are in winamp. You then turn on the winamp mode buy flicking 2 digits down the screen tell you here winamp. Then flick up and down tell you here the command set you want for example play back controls. Now flick left or right tell you here the option you want and then double tap. The window-eyes winamp app would then send the command along to winamp it self. This way you could provide access to programs that don't use UIA or any other means of allowing window-eyes to provide touch elaments. Ok I know I got touch on the brain right now sorry.
