Sounds like a great place to start.
WinEyes users have come to enjoy the benefits of the App Central, to download and keep an eye on all the apps been offered for the screen reader. Does there exist any kind of a central place for getting an overview of which scripts would be available for Jaws? Or, is the user left to hunt the complete internet and a few places more, to get an idea of available scripts for the Jaws screen reader? Thanks for some knowledgeable assistance. we sure will need some of that, in the next few weeks. Smiles.
