I think I am out of SMA counts! I want to renew it, but I am NOT encouraged or as enthusiastic as I should be with respect to Window-Eyes! May be I'll watch the space for another year if I have one to spare?
For more than 20 years, Window-Eyes has kept me in business! When my company was a Moneygram agent, Marc helped to CONFIGURE the Java Bridge thingy which then enabled me to use Moneygram's inaccessible app even though the silly app was NOT COMPLETELY accessible from a blindness perspective. Even their blind employee who used the other screen reader COULD NOT help me, but Marc, now gone, WAVED THE MAGIC WAND and voilá, it was business as usual. I had a POS app no longer updated by its original developer for which Mr. Clower helped to write scripts! Although I can't find the plugs for whatever reason I can't fathom presently, I still have the external speech synthesizer Speak-Out! If I ever find its plugs, I'd like to take it for a test drive still with Window-Eyes! It worked wonders with Vocal-Eyes, who remembers that one? In my ancient and modern DOS box that also has an installation of Windows-For-Workgroups 3.11, Sounding Board is still CRANKING OUT speech. See how far I have come with GW Micro? I'm sure there are folks whose mileages are better than mine, but, it was GW Micro's Vocal-Eyes that finally allowed me to vegetate towards learning to use a computer. Having said the foregoing, where's WordStar? Where's WindowBridge? Where's Artic? And where's ASAW? So many swamps have been drained overtime; I sure hope that CLIMATE CHANGE won't drain this one for just a while yet!
