I should sort of warn you that it is a bit trickier to script an application that Freedom Scientific has already scripted, because you have to make sure that your own scripts mesh properly with those that already come with JAWS. Word is such a case: FS includes Word scripts with JAWS, so you would have to work your scripts in with theirs. This can be done in a couple of ways, each having its pros and cons. First though, I think it would be most useful to us if you could tell us what functionality you want to add by writing scripts. That might help us figure out the best way to make it happen. If you just want to add some commands of your own, it really won't matter much which way you do it. If you're trying to alter JAWS' behavior as you do things, add or modify automatic speech, or do anything else that might involve intercepting a JAWS event, it will be time to talk about chaining script files together.

Most of what I'm doing is for simple access to frequently used requirements. Too much of what I'm doing is to defeat stuff. One day...
