Trivia Question, in the folowing snippet of code, which message do you think
will get spoken first? Hello? or Goodbye.
The winner will recieve an all expenses paid trip to nowhere, and a cracked
version of NVDA.
Script Test ()
; start this from the keyboard
ScheduleFunction ("HelpTest", 1)
delay(50)
SayString ("goodbye")
EndScript
Function helpTest ()
SayString ("hello")
EndFunction
The answer? Are you sure you want to know? You're not going to like this.
Wrong. Good bye is spoken first, because the jaws script engine is busy
processing the delay statement when the scheduled function comes due. So, the
scheduled event must wait for the main script to finish, even though it is due
sooner.
