All. They are just packages with differing numbers of additional bells and 
whistles. Basic program is the same.

Here's text from a message about where to get the scripts:

An new set of JAWS scripts is now available for use with Band-in-a-Box.

The newly released scripts contain several improvements including:

-  Bar, beat, and chord information is now displayed in braille as the user 
navigates through a song.

-  the looping and navigation functions which are usually associated with the 
use of the Numpad keys with Numlock on (and thus conflict with Jaws) are now 
available by bringing up a list of options and selections by hitting 
Control+Shift+L.

-  The Ear Training Tutor has been made accessible with JAWS.  After getting 
into the Ear Training tutor with Control+Shift+J, use the hotkey Alt+JawsKey+B 
once, twice, or three times to bring up a list of options and selections.

-  An option has been included to speak the function of many of the BIAB 
build-in hotkeys.  To toggle this function on/off hit JawsKey+Insert twice 
quickly.

-  The new features are documented in the help file which can be brought up by 
hitting JawsKey+H.

-  A few minor bugs with the natural speaking of chords have been fixed.  This 
includes the proper speaking of augmented and suspended chords with an 
alternate bass note as well as the ability to speak and display the chords in 
braille when there are multiple chords in one part of a measure.

Below is the information for downloading the new scripts and/or documentation.  
The downloads include:

-    bbw_2008_r2.exde = the self-extracting installer
-    bbw_2008_r2.zip = a zipped archive containing the BIAB scripts which can 
be installed manually
-    bbwREadme_2008_r2.htm = documentation and instructions

  Hi Dave
  I've been looking into Band In a Box  since you wrote the email below. Can 
you confirm whether the jaws scripts work with Band in a Box Pro, Mega, Super 
or Ultra or all of these? 
  Could you also post details of the midi-mag list?
  Thanks.

    Richard,

    If you're on the MIDI-Mag list, you can get all the latest from those on 
that list. The latest scripts work with JAWS 9 and with BIAB 2008.5.

    Dave

      Hi all

       

      What are the last scripts for band-in-a-box, where can I get it and which 
bundle is useful for us with the scripts?

       

      regards
