Hi folks,

Given the vast amount of customization available in The Bat, I was wondering if 
it would somehow be possible to replace the current interface with standard 
Windows controls? i submitted this request several months back in the bugs 
database, but so far nothing has yet been done. The reason I ask is that I'm a 
low vision computer user so rely on screen reading software to translate the 
information on screen into synthetic speech. Some areas of the application work 
decently well, but others, most notably the configuration dialogs are much more 
difficult to navigate these days. I know that the layout still looks the same, 
but the underlying structure of the window classes has changed, and many access 
technology products don't know what to make of them. I love The Bat, and 
despite the change of accessibility I use it exclusively for my E-mail needs. I 
don't ask for an immediate change, but something like the old 3.0 kind of 
interface would be welcomed. What might be even better would be a completely 
skinnable interface, so those of us who prefer the plain vanilla interface for 
the sake of accessibility can use that one, while everyone who wants the more 
appealing eye candy can still use it. I'm using a product called Window-Eyes 
from http://www.GWMicro.com. Their developer's site is at 
http://www.gwmicro.com/Developers/
Anything you guys can do would be greatly appreciated. Thanks for such an 
excellent product so far. I look forward to any future improvements.
