Thanks. Test already. But, skype team must fix the short-cut key and alert status. So now, remove back the scripts because I can read the chat in the listbox. Have a good job.

I've been using these for a while, but no one else has, so pardon any rough edges, and please report them here. The direct URL for the Skype 4 beta scripts remains http://www.dlee.org/skype/skype4.php But they are also, at long last, accessible from my main Skype page, http://www.dlee.org/skype/ As usual, I have a few things to say about this release: First, the name of this release is 4b3a, not the likely expected 4b5. This is explained in the release notes on my web site. My advice on who should try Skype 4 beta has changed a bit. Until now, I have recommended that only the most daring should try this. Now though, I recommend that anyone who wants to contribute to the accessibility of the next major Skype release try it, as long as the following warnings don't make this unwise for you. To tantalize some of you, I'll point out that it appears to be possible in Skype 4.0 beta 3 to add people to a conference even if you're not the host! This feature, sometimes called "answer/join" by fans of it from the Skype 2.0 days, has been absent for a very long time. For anyone interested in trying Skype 4: 1. Read my web site page about this script release, http://www.dlee.org/skype/skype4.php I am likely to update that page from time to time. Some of it may already be slightly out of date in fact. I must stress, though, that you could get some big surprises if you try installing these scripts without first reading that page. 2. Be aware that SkypeWatch is not supported in Skype 4 at this time. More about this on the above page. I'm trying to get Skype to fix this issue internally. 3. Be prepared to return to Skype 3 if you need it for something specific that is not in Skype 4. Sadly, this would include the hot keys such as Alt+PageUp to answer calls, as these are still not implemented in Skype 4. 4. If all that didn't scare you off, grab the scripts from the URL I gave earlier, grab Skype 4.0 beta 3 directly from skype.com or from wherever you normally go, and give it all a whirl. 5. Report any problems you have to this list and also on the Jira bug reporting site for Skype, which is at https://developer.skype.com/jira/ I ask this so that Skype developers and management can see the number of blind users who are trying to use their product. When writing to Skype directly, keep in mind that they already know accessibility is important. This is about showing them numbers of people, as priorities are often affected by such numbers. In other words, be nice, but you don't have to be quiet. :) -- Doug Lee dgl at dlee.org http://www.dlee.org SSB BART Group doug.lee at ssbbartgroup.com http://www.ssbbartgroup.com "Innovation is hard to schedule." -- Dan Fylstra Thanks for posting to the skype english list.
