Hi David, >From reading Cuong's earlier posts' I was under the impression that this program was supposed to make it easier for someone that doesn't know how to install scripts to install them, but after reading his steps from earlier this morning, it sounds like this program will be harder to understand how it works & use by the people it's supposedly made for, than learning where to put scripts manually. Here's the earlier post:
Hi This is a short instruction I shared at other forum I've developed an application named Jaws Script Install using 7 zip, autoit and the Layout by code written by Jamal Mazrui. People who are interesting can download at http://tinyurl.com/h5ooggn This helps people especially beginner of Jaws install any script from a zip file. This program does the job very quicly. I recommend you to create a folder, copy the programs into it then run because it will extract some required files at the first time running. Now, just choose a zip file, and some options such as install for current user or All user, Backup before replace, overwrite file if exists, recompile script... then press the Install button. Program will close when completing the installation. If chehck the backup before replace options, a zip filename backup.zip will be created parallel the program executable file. This program can also work quicker and easier by adding shortcut itself toSend to context menu. Just activate the create send to menufor that job. A message box will tel you that you did it successfully. From now on, just press the application key at a zip file you want, choose send to sub menu, and choose Jaws Script install. Program will start with the selected zip file added to Zip file field. Just choose other options you'd like, and press the Install button. whenever you want to remove it from send to menu, press the Remove send tomenu button. This program works very friendly with Jaws. I added some alert message when it backup existing script, recompile etc. This make you monitor the progress easily. I do this just because I'm self learning autoit, and some of my feature has folowed by the Jaws Script Exchange written by Jamal afiew years ago. This version have alot of things need to be fixed, such as code structure, even the English text in it interface, so I'd love to recieve featbacks, or feature request, in order to make it works better. When I release it, I'll give a documentation. For the technical info, I develop this program using autoit script, including layout by code library for creating it interface, SendTo library for adding and removing send to menu shortcut, 7-zip for extracting and backing up scripts before replacing. Hope this useful Cuong I know that I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer, but I think that for someone that doesn't know how or where to install Jaws scripts, trying to follow the above steps, let alone run the installer would confuse them. Personally I don't know if he's explaining how the script installer works or, if these are steps someone is supposed to follow. Just my 2 cents worth. Take care.

I fiddled with doing an audio this afternoon but it just didn't come out right. I have not given up as I feel it is worth doing.
