> Hi! > After my observation a few days ago that Skypewatch doesn't work so well > in Skype 4.0 as it did in Skype 3.8, I have installed SKRead, which works > well with my Skype 4 and my JAWS 6.20 on a computer with Windows XP. > For the information of those who aren't familiar with it, SKRead gives you > lots of information about Skype events. Some of this info is given by > Skypewatch with Skype 3.8, such as notifications when a contact comes > online or the name of the contact who is calling you when your Skype > rings, but SKRead can also give you extra info, for example which contacts > have birthdays in the coming two weeks. The info is read by the computer's > default Sapi 5 text-to-speech voice, or you can set up another Sapi 5 > voice for SKRead if you don't want to use the default one. I can > personally recommend SKRead for Skype 4 users, or for users of earlier > versions of Skype who have difficulties installing Skypewatch.
