Hi, Here's a post on the talk list which those of you on this list might wish to respond to.
Thanks, Rod -----Original Message----- From: Talk [mailto:talk-bounces+rod_hutton=hotmail....@lists.window-eyes.com] On Behalf Of Dave via Talk Sent: Thursday, May 21, 2015 7:22 PM To: t...@lists.window-eyes.com Subject: Scripting question Hello, I have a good understanding of Computers. I have some programing experience, but it has been a few years since I've done any coding. I keep hearing about Scripting, as if it can really bring an otherwise Non-accessible program into the ranks of the accessible programs. This question might be impossible to answer, but I'll toss it out here. If I wanted to write a Script to make MS Word accessible, even down to the smallest of features, is this possible to do, since there are several hundred features in MS Word. I think this question could be asked about making all areas in MS Windows accessible as well. Is this sort of project unrealistic? Would the project be too large to work well without affecting the operation of MS Word? If the Script is very large, does it slow down the over all speed of a program such as MS Word? I am grateful for the Scripts others have written for my benefit. Without them, I would have No Access. But, often I want to change a setting in MS Word, or in Windows, and that part of the program does not read well. It might be an obscure area and so most users are not going to ever need access, so there is no Scripting for these kinds of areas. I notice that most Scripts give general access, but not too much in the smaller areas. So when it comes down to it, you have limited access to MS Word, and most other programs. So, I am asking, To give total access to MS Word, would the Script need to be as large as MS Word? Which would make giving total access for a program an impractical request. _______________________________________________ Any views or opinions presented in this email are solely those of the author and do not necessarily represent those of Ai Squared.
