Minor correction in case it's useful: I would not have said there are no scripts for Skype 4. There are scripts for Skype 4, but they are not as well publicized as the ones for Skype 3, because I still don't recommend people use Skype 4 unless they are feeling particularly experimental.
The Skype 4 scripts, for those who still want to play with this, are at http://www.dlee.org/skype/skype4.php On Thu, Oct 30, 2008 at 09:41:38AM -0700, Gene wrote: Jim, I contacted Doug Lee and asked about the Skype 4 beta. He told me he was working with the folks at Skype and that, since Skype 4 is in the beta process, there aren't any scripts yet. I concluded from his E-mail that the final release would be accessible. Also, there is a discussion at Skype.com that openly says that Skype 4 is not accessible. Y As frustrating as it is, for me as well, you might consider staying with the latest 3.8 version. Its accessibility isn't perfect, but, it is usable. I hope I've been helpful.

Subject: [Skypeenglish] FW: Skype 4.0.0.169 Beta Apparently Skype has released another version of this horrible beta. I do not have any specifics yet about what has been changed from this version to the previous version as of this writing, nothing has appeared in the skype garage blog I of course hope that more features work as they did in 3.8, And I hope something has been done about the user interface. I have already launched my complaints about this numerous times, so I will not bore you all with them again below is a direct link for the download. Note, as information becomes available from the Skype garage On this new beta I will post here. I hope this information is useful. http://majorgeeks.com/downloadget4245-1-77c0b39374aabed16f2289f40418603f.htm l Feed: MajorGeeks.com Posted on: Thursday, October 30, 2008 7:09 AM Author: MajorGeeks.com Subject: Skype 4.0.0.169 Beta Make free calls anywhere in the world in minutes.
