Speech History

By default, JAWS retains a list of the last 50 announcements that were 
spoken by the speech synthesizer. For users of refreshable braille displays, 
JAWS has always provided a mode where you could review this spoken 
information in braille. When this mode is active, you can use the controls 
on the braille display to review the last 50 announcements that have been 
spoken by JAWS.

Speech History extends this functionality to users who rely on using speech 
more than braille. If you miss one or more messages spoken by JAWS, you can 
press INSERT+SPACEBAR, followed by H to open a Results Viewer window 
containing up to the last 50 announcements spoken by the synthesizer. When 
the Speech History window opens, you are placed on the line containing the 
most recent announcement.

To clear the history, press INSERT+SPACEBAR, followed by SHIFT+H. The 
history is also cleared when you lock the computer or completely log off.

If you do not want JAWS to keep a history of what is spoken, do the 
following:

  1.. Press INSERT+F2, and select Settings Center.
  2.. Press CTRL+SHIFT+D to load the default JAWS settings.
  3.. In the Search edit box, type "speech history" without the quotes.
  4.. Press DOWN ARROW to move to Enable Speech History in the filtered 
search results in the tree view.
  5.. Press SPACEBAR to clear this check box.

Take care.
