It was a message with a graphic of a red flame and a text message saying "Red Hot News Coming Soon" It was forwarded and the graphic came through as code. That's all it was, just a teaser of something coming soon. ----- Original Message ----- From: Michael Massey via Talk To: 'Pamela Dominguez' ; 'Window-Eyes Discussion List' Sent: Sunday, October 25, 2015 8:13 AM Subject: Red hot news from Ai Squared and a speech questionRE: Red Hot Newsfrom Ai Squared!
Hi, Pam. Here's the answer to your first question and also a comment. Like you, I did not receive the message from the list itself, however, it was forwarded by one of the list members, smile. The message contained html code which Window-eyes tries to read but it comes out as gibberish. I decided that I would try to listen to the entire message for the heck of it. At the bottom of the message there was text mentioning Zoom Text, however, I have tried not to mention this because I didn't want to get another unnecessary thread going, smile. As per your second question. Yes, Window-eyes has the ability to have different voices for the screen, keyboard, and mouse, depending on which synthesizer you use. I have a mouse voice set to be spoken in what I call a and I quote "mousey" voice whenever I press the numbpad keys. I use Eloquence which allows this feature to work. I hope I answered your questions. -----Original Message----- From: Talk [mailto:talk-bounces+massey52=q....@lists.window-eyes.com] On Behalf Of Pamela Dominguez via Talk Sent: Sunday, October 25, 2015 5:44 AM To: Loy <loyrg2...@gmail.com>; Window-Eyes Discussion List <talk@lists.window-eyes.com> Subject: Re: Red Hot News from Ai Squared!

Actually, Someone forwarded the message causing all the jibberish. The original was fine. lighten up people. We fuss if we don't hear from AISquared and now we fuss because they are letting us know that something good is coming soon. ----- Original Message ----- From: Stephen Clark via Talk To: David ; Window-Eyes Discussion List Sent: Tuesday, October 20, 2015 1:43 PM Subject: Re: Red Hot News from Ai Squared! Actually, It was binary not text. I ran it through a binary editor, and had it try to extract any text it could find out of it and it found some text which said, we really don't care about all the problems with our screen reader at this point were way over are heads and there may never even be another Window-eyes version.
