[JAWS-Users] How to replace FS mirror display drivers in device maniger?
Listers, Okay, I blew it this time I was having problems with Jaws so I uninstalled everything including the mirror display drivers in device maniger. I reinstalled Jaws at least, three times but I'm getting a message saying, some thing like, the mirror display drivers need to be repaired.So, how is that done? I've rebooted the computer as I was told by Jaws to fix the problem, but thatdidn't fix it. That too, was done several times. This is Jaws12 I'm dealing with, and I did a full repair by installing the latest build of Jaws, and still nothing!. If anyone knows how to fix this, please, tell me. Jaws isn't quite right with out those mirror drivers. Thanks to all! Carliss For answers to frequently asked questions about this list visit: http://www.jaws-users.com/help/

Re: [JAWS-Users] emoticons
Yeah, there used to be scripts for that in things like Messenger. I think you had to enable the emodicons. It would say things like smiley, sad smiley, and probably thirty or more other expressions. - Original Message - From: Jorge Paez computertechjorgep...@gmail.com To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Tuesday, May 24, 2011 7:48 PM Subject: [JAWS-Users] emoticons Hi all: Just wondering, In Voice Over on the Mac I'm used to it saying Smile or wink, heart etc., when it comes across emoticons weather on chats or twitter.

[JAWS-Users] jaws 12 latest update, tends to go out of focus a lot.
Hi all, I am running windows 7 on a 64 bit machine with jaws 12, latest update. Jaws seems to lose focus a lot. Sometimes when I'm just checking email, it will lose focus. It also tends to lose focus, if I am downloading something, or, it loses focus, just because. smile. Has anyone had this problem, and is there a solution? I have written FS and seen no response.

I guess David chimes in when he's tired of reading about programming smile So, this will be my last reply - please continue this thread on the programming list. The C# compiler is located in C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\csc.exe for the 32-bit version and 64-bit C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\csc.exe Csc.exe is a command line compiler, so you have to open a Windows console / command prompt to compile and read compiler warnings and errors etc. The above path is related to version 4 of the .NET framework. I recommend adding C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319 to your path environment variable. Doing that will allow you to simply type csc.exe some_program.cs when you're ready to compile your program. If you don't add it to your path you'll need to type: C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\csc.exe some_program.cs every time you compile. A bit cumbersome to say the least. So, let's pretend that you've written the well known Hello, World! Program in C# and named the file containing the C# source code HelloWorld.cs. To compile the program type: Csc.exe HelloWorld.cs This will produce HelloWorld.exe.

I guess David chimes in when he's tired of reading about programming smile So, this will be my last reply - please continue this thread on the programming list. The C# compiler is located in C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\csc.exe for the 32-bit version and 64-bit C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v4.0.30319\csc.exe Csc.exe is a command line compiler, so you have to open a Windows console / command prompt to compile and read compiler warnings and errors etc. The above path is related to version 4 of the .NET framework. I recommend adding C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319 to your path environment variable. Doing that will allow you to simply type csc.exe some_program.cs when you're ready to compile your program. If you don't add it to your path you'll need to type: C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v4.0.30319\csc.exe some_program.cs every time you compile. A bit cumbersome to say the least. So, let's pretend that you've written the well known Hello, World! Program in C# and named the file containing the C# source code HelloWorld.cs. To compile the program type: Csc.exe HelloWorld.cs This will produce HelloWorld.exe. If your code contains errors the compiler will tell you on which line etc. Good luck! -Original Message- From: jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Jorge Paez Sent: 22. mai 2011 02:52 To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] programing environments and JFW12 for .net, how can I compile it once I write it?

Re: [JAWS-Users] programming environments and JFW12
Lennie, I took an introductory course in programming at our community college in the '80s. We used punch cards and I try to think of that as training in patience. What a pain! It was assembler and it was, indeed, the intro class. There were a few smart terminals on the campus, but not for us beginners. rob Hill - Original Message - From: Lennie lenni...@mchsi.com To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Sent: Wednesday, May 25, 2011 2:01 PM Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] programming environments and JFW12 Hi David and Gerald, Man! I must be old! I go back before COBOL to assembly language using IBM 360/30 with 30K of storage and IBM 360/40 with 40K of storage. There were times my programs ran out of storage and it took some doing to make it fit. Everything was done with punched cards which I had to punched most of the programs myself. Those keypunch operators had a difficult time with assembly language programs. I even did some programming with the IBM 1400 series using autocoder. Anyone on the list ever wired a board for am E A M (Electronic accounting machine)? It is nice to know that I am not the only one on the list. I must be the oldest one on the list though? Old programmer never die,they just fade away. Take care. Lennie At 09:06 AM 5/22/2011, you wrote: Wow, a fellow COBOL programmer! I go all the way back to the IBM 360 and 370 series.

Believe me I know what compilers are designed to do and I even have a COBOL compiler from my computer school days here.I was a programmer on an IBM 3090 main frame a while back until the job ran out.
