Hi Doug and list!

Well, I think I see what you mean about the redundancy. That is, if it were 
working, in theory, I should hear both the sound and the word Skype. In the 
case of the exit, I hear only the sound. This is probably because I have the 
escape key set to be silent. 

I looked in Skype.ini and could not find a line that would seem to make it 
play. I tried guessing it by adding a line that said
SkypeEnterCommand=1
and saving it, but that didn't make it play. 

Maybe then, it needs to be a verbossity item. You'd call it entering command 
mode, and the choices would be sound or Jaws. When set to sound, you'd hear the 
sound. When set to Jaws, Jaws would say Skype. That's just my musing.

Cheers,
Dave

  I guess I didn't make an option for it, but I did include that file,
  and there should be a skype.ini entry that would make it play.  I
  disabled it though because it seemed redundant and actually annoying
  to me.

  Hi all!

  I was just looking at files in my user folder and see a little wav file that 
by it's name, suggests should be played when entering Skype's command mode. The 
file plays fine when I open it directly, but I've never heard it played when 
I've entered Skype's command mode. 

  I've looked through verbossity options, and didn't find a reference, so have 
I missed something there that I should have caught? 

  I can hear the sound for exiting command mode fine, and provided a person is 
using a new enough version of Skype, I can hear the typing sound as I should, 
so I'm a bit mistified as to why I don't hear the sound for enterinc command 
mode. Jaws does say Skype when I enter command mode, so I do know that it is 
happening. This isn't a show stopper, obviously, but more of a curiossity. Can 
anyone here solve it?

  Cheers,
  Dave
