Subject: Does a compendium of available scripts for commercial applications
exist somewhere?

Hi,

I'm a newbie again to this list.  I was a lurking member for a couple years
about a decade ago.  I'm now needing to do much more JAWS scripting, so I'm 
happy to be back.

I wanted to do as much work as possible to answer my own question before
posting it here, but after a reasonable amount of searching with only google
I didn't see the particular thing I'm looking for just now.  In future, I
would like to be able to consult the "master" list of available JAWS scripts
(either for $$$ or free) that work on various commercial applications.

My question this time was particular about a guitar training site I belong
to called guitartircks.com.  It is a terrific site, but rather inaccessible.
The manager/owner of the site is very receptive to upgrading the site to be
accessible.   One of the small applications they provide if you join and
become a paying member is a program/web page called Chord Finder.  I
haven't looked at all closely yet, but it seems to be essentially a huge
image map that configures a query on the fly (unfortunately with a mouse)
aned then provides the response both graphically and in various audio modes.
This is a large well run site, so I'm hoping some other blind folks are
already members. Though I'm kind of doubting it because it is so
inaccessible. I am certainly NOT expecting anyone to join this site just to
see this application or any of the other stuff... So unless there are
already members to the site, this particular part of my question will fall
on deaf ears.

But, who knows, I have to ask. To any extent that some kind of scripting
could be done on this Chord Finder app, I'm wondering if anyone has done any
work on this thing?

So, that is the particular question in this message, but the main question
remains, where could I have looked before asking you all to help me find
such scripts?  Does anyone anywhere (other than Freedom Scientific if they
do it at all)  maintain a list of all the scripts available out there?

Thanks 

John
