Hi.
Jim put those main menu programs on a CD which I got from him. However,
these programs aren't very helpful as far as learning to write scripts. They
are not very well organized and they assume you have some knowledge of
computer programming. They are not a tutorial in an strict sence.

Several years ago now, Jim Snowbarger did a series for ACB Radio's main
menu on scripting for JAWS. Probably dating from around 2001 - a
13-part series, mp3 files. Perhaps on the main menu archives page, fo a
screen-reader find command for "scripting" or "JAWS script". perhaps
listening to a few beginning parts of that series will inform the
listener whether to continue or look to some other JAWS scripting
tutorial.
