Folks, you make me think I'll give Zoomtext 9 Beta a try. Wonder if anyone would care to give an opinion on its screen reader aspects? I know it is NOT a screen reader as such, but for those who have some usable sight it sure is a good approach to maximising one's use of sight and hearing. What struck me about the new version more than anything else is the long awaited, by me, context files; i.e. having settings specific to the program in use. That has to be a good move.

What's even more annoying is the lack of real new features for the SMA money. Jayne Peter Logue <peterlogue@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: Thanks Justin. Glad I'm not alone. Perhaps version 9 will relieve a lot of problems. Peter from sunny Ontario.
