I recently listened to an archived recording of an event from the Pat
Price room on accessibleworld.org presenting Eric Damery (probably
misspelled his name, sorry) discussing JAWS 17. he answers a question
from the participants that I think answers your question. sorry, I don't
remember what he said it was.

"|" is a single character. What is "cell". What is actually on the screen?
If it is a single character that JAWS speaks as "cell", could you put that
single character in the dictionary with "|" as its replacement?

Subject: [JAWS-Users] JFW17, HTML tables, & screen layout
Hello all,
For any who read tables in html documents, you have noticed the change from
"|" to "cell" being the separator between columns. I contacted FS and they
did this on purpose because some don't like the |. A | has been used for
this purpose since the feature of simple layout VS screen layout was
introduced in Jaws years ago. I've been using it for just as long and my ear
is tuned to | as a separator instead of "cell".
I was told to submit a suggestion to make this a feature change. I have done
so by asking if they can give the user the option of picking the character
used to separate the columns when in screen layout. If anyone else agrees
with me, please email FS at suggesti...@freedomscientific.com
In the meantime, does anyone know how to maybe alter the scripts to do this
without waiting on FS?
Thanks,
Jason
