they had showed that they were going to include skype support in jaws 8 a while back at CSUN or something like that.
Again, the scripts for skype 2.5 can be downloaded at http://chris.thetestpattern.com/jfwskype/jfw-skr275.zipthe .jss and stuf fhas to be compiled for your version of jaws, but rather then that they work fine.

I'm wondering if I missed something here. You say FS dropped support for Skype in JAWS 8.0, but I am not aware of FS ever having formally supported Skype, in the sense of scripting for it, writingconfigurations for it, etc. What support for Skype has been dropped in JAWS 8?On Sun, Nov 19, 2006 at 09:11:13AM -0800, Brandon B wrote:in my experience with 2.5, it's just as asccessible with jaws, as the earlier versions, if not more, since 2.5 makes use of MSAA for there list views and sutch.The scripts for skype which can be downloaded from http://chris.thetestpattern.com/jfwskype/jfw-skr275.zipbeta scripts, work great wiith 2.5. They just need to be compiled again, so after copy pasting hte files, just open them in script manager and alt f s.I'm in a little bit of a hurry , but I hope this helps someone. skype: serrebi2006 if you need help.as a side note: skype 3.0 beta is a little bit of an accessible hurdle. THe main skype download is fine, but unless you are good with a little unaccessible progs, don't go looking for skype 3.x, as it doesn't work perfectly even with the scripts. THey changed the interface, added skining, etc etc, that's probably why skype support was dropped from jaws 8.0, honestly I'm surprised no one brought this up yet... It prob needed more work!----- Original Message ----- From: Rob HillTo: jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Saturday, November 18, 2006 8:30 PM Subject: new skype Anyone know if the Skype version 2.5 is good with JAWS? thanks -- Doug Lee dgl@xxxxxxxxSSB + BART Group doug.lee@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.ssbbartgroup.com"Innovation is hard to schedule." -- Dan Fylstra -- JFW related links: JFW homepage: http://www.freedomscientific.com/Scripting mailing list: http://lists.the-jdh.com/listinfo.cgi/scriptography-the-jdh.comJFW List instructions: To post a message to the list, send it to jfw@xxxxxxxxxxxxxTo unsubscribe from this mailing list, send a message to jfw-request@xxxxxxxxxxxxx with the word unsubscribe in the subject line.Archives located at: //www.freelists.org/archives/jfwIf you have any concerns about the list, post received from the list, or the way the list is being run, do not post them to the list.
