[jawsscripts] Re: Escape key in JAWS scripts

Hi Robin and Dennis,

Thanks for your responses. The whole idea of passing the escape key to the 
application is to close an open dialogue. This does not appear to work from 
a script.

Am I going to have to find the close button and activate it?

Regards,
Jim

Sorry, I mis read your post. This was to use the Escape key as opposed to 
"press" it. My apologies. I see Dennis has given the response needed.

Hi. It is recommended that you do not use this key. However, if you must go 
to keyboard manager Jaws +8 then go to options. Arrow down to hot keys. Here 
you will find hot keys that you should really think seriously  about using. 
If you must then  arrow down to the escape key and check it. Tab to the ok 
button. Now you will be able to use the escape key in a script.

Again, exercise caution when making scripts attached to these specific hot 
keys.
Robin

Hi Listers,

I was just wondering. If I want to have a script hit the "Escape" key, how
do I do it?
