Hi,
I am currently away on a trip and using my macbook air more extensively then
usual.
I have the date and time set up in language and regions as I want for the mac

this is semi annoying. How or where do I change
Hi,
does anyone know how to change the way VO speaks the date and time in the Apple
script used in Keyboard Commander? It sounds strange to hear the english format
for date and time spoken out by a german voice. So hopefully someone can
understand what I mean and can help.
All the best
Jürgen
Hello Jürgen,
To make Date Time speak correctly in German you need to replace the script.
I'm no expert in Applescript so can't help with this.
Cheers,
Anne

What needs to happen is for Apple to include basic scripts like this right
inside vo, so there is no loading going on. All screen readers have keys to
read time, date, and battery status, so vo should be no different. Instead of
just reporting that reading the time can be very slow, I encourage
it, since it doesn't seem to be a bug.

If you are referring to the time and date that is displayed on the status menu,
