Jerry, what makes you think the default file hasn't been touched?  I don't 
have a prior default jss to compare this one too.  What I am wondering 
though is if you had ever made any changes to the default jss file before 
you installed the new build?  If you did this is what I believe may be 
happening.
Remember now that when you make changes to a script file, it is saved it 
into your own settings enu folder.  So now we install the update and it 
updates the default file in the ALL USERS settings enu.
I don't think the update changed anything in our individual settings enu 
folder.  But when jaws loads scripts, it first looks in YOUR settings enu 
folder.  So it might be loading the default jss you have in your settings 
enu, not the updated one from the all users folder.
Did that make any sense at all, grin?  I guess what I am saying is look in 
your settings enu folder and see if you do indeed have a default jss file in 
there.  If you do, then look at the default jss file in the all users 
settings enu and see if you find new changes there.  That one has a modified 
date of 4/12, as if they were indeed updating it up until the very last 
minute they released the update, ha ha.

Hello Clark & others.

The error reported at the very end of the updating process is erroneous, I
believe. From here, at least, the update seems to have been correctly
installed, despite the error I got at the end like many others.

Although I have noticed numerous differences in this newest build, I was
surprised to see that the source code for the default files had not been
touched. I have not attempted to recompile it, fearing that I may lose
hundreds of default scripts. Is there anyone on the list who has the new
beta with the default.jss file changed? I'd like very much to know.

Jerry
