No, Skype Talking and the Skype Scripts for JAWS are completely different. The scripts offer better navigation and functionality when using the Skype interface with JAWS. Skype Talking is a program that runs in the background and can, among other things, give you status alerts, read incoming IM's, etc. Skype Talking works with any screen reader and even SAPI. You can download Skype Talking from:
http://www.skypetalking.googlecode.com (I believe)

PS. Skype Talking is recommended for reading status changes as of Skype 4 since the older Skype Watch utility will not read statuses correctly as of Skype 4.

Hi, is this different from the 4.2 E scripts and does skype talking make navigation easier? If not, I won't worry about it but thanks for the explanation. Somebody thought I had skype talking but I don't think so, as I just downloaded and installed the scripts from Doug's page. Thanks for
this note.  Have a blessed day.

Hi, if you want skype me Jamie you got to get skype talking. It will
allow
you to set your status to skype me. Not really all that much point but it
can be done.

Hi, I don't know if skype me is around anymore, but it just means that you want people to call you and you could get calls from anyone. Not sure
about
your other question. I asked about skype me and all I got was that they
removed it because of some confusion but it's still in their faq
information.  Hope this helps.  Have a blessed day.

Hello,

I have two relatively similar questions regarding statuses on Skype:

1. What is the "skype me" status. From what a friend told me, this
means that the user has auto-answer on, meaning calls would
automatically be answered instead of ringing like a standard call. This does not seem to show up in the status menu from within Skype and
the only way I was able to set myself to this status was via the
change status command in Skype Talking. However, once my status was set to Skype Me, when the same friend attempted to call me, it just rang like a usual call and there was no auto-answer. Also, the only way I can see when a person is Skype Me is via Skype Talking; Skype
itself
just shows the person as online.

2. This is pretty similar to the last question: What is the "not available" status? This one I was unable to get a proper explanation for and again, I can only change my status to this and/or see other people who aren't available from within Skype Talking; skype itself
just shows them as away.

I am using Skype 4,2, so my guess is that these statuses may not work
properly (or at all) as of version 4.

Any explanation on this would be appreciated,

Robert (message sent from BrailleNote Apex)
