Re: [Audyssey] JAWS abuse revenge
Hi. While I can't speak for why Jaws does certain things, I can tell you that the approach that screen readers have with key strokes is no different than two car manufacturers have about the placement of buttons, styles, etc on their cars. Take Toyota and Honda for example. they both make excellent cars, but things work differently in them because each company feels it is doing the better thing. I realize this of course does not help you, but hey, if you want some Window-Eyes help, GW Micro's technical support is legendary and there is a real cool guy who works for them and he's always willing to help out a fellow Window-Eyes user. He hasn't been with the company long, but he's used Vocal-Eyes since version 2 and Window-Eyes since version 1 so he knows what he's talking about when it comes to Window-Eyes. One thing I can guarantee if you call GW Micro is that you won't be treated like you are dumb, nor will you be treated any differently just because you also use Jaws. Now, to stop breaking my own rules, I'll not write any more on this topic, so if you have any questions about this, write privately. ari said the following on 12/18/2007 1:37 AM: > One thing I can't stand about this whole screenreader thing is doing the > change.

Brandon, cool! What other funny stuff can be done to make JAWS and synthesizer do that? It was sort of going lower, like spinning!

Re: [Audyssey] JAWS abuse revenge
Have we really run out of topics of conversation? I don't particularly care what screenreader so and so uses. I use JAWS. It works for me. And that's as far as I go with it. Ceasefire.

Re: [Audyssey] JAWS abuse revenge
One thing I can't stand about this whole screenreader thing is doing the change. I use JAWS at home, the uni to which I'm transferring uses WE, so this holiday I've been busy reading the mannual and having to learn WE. Why isn't there some quick document or something that makes moving from the one to the other easier! The funny thing is that both companies say their keystrokes are the most logical, like in Word, to hear the atributes of a document, you do insert f, probably for format or font or something, and then with WE you do ctrl shift s, probably for style or something? I really could have had something better to do this holiday, crying!

[Audyssey] JAWS abuse revenge
If you continue to pick on JAWS and users of the program, a curse on you: May you have to write code using 8.5 by 11 inch sheets of paper with adhesive on the back, in braille, with a slate and stylus, while dealing with arthritis! Now, how's that? for being ornery. --- Shepherds are the best beasts. - Original Message - From: "Thomas Ward" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "Gamers Discussion list" Sent: Monday, December 17, 2007 12:03 PM Subject: Re: [Audyssey] size of messages > Hi Raul, > Hmmm...
