Re: urgent please help

Hi,

You can go to the www.freedomscientific.com website, look in the download
section, then under JFW and under More downloads.  They have made their JAWS
for DOS program available for a free download.

I think you may need an external speech synthesizer to use Jaws for Dos, I
don't recall being able to use a software synthesizer like Eloquence, since
that runs in a Windows environment.

Hi friends !

A friend of mine, who is also visually challenged and is currently managing
a telephone booth for livelihood, has got the  break of his life - the Taj
group
has evinced interest in employing him as a telephone operator in one of his
properties, provided he can prove that he can work  on their computer
system.
 Unfortunately for my friend, the Taj apparently uses some DOS based
software - called Fidelio - which is not supported by JFW.  There is a good
chance
of him getting this job if he could demonstrate his ability to work with
Fidelio in the next few days.  So, please help us out with the following
doubts
:

a) Can we make Jaws For Windows to work on DOS software with some
configuration settings ?  Or, is it a sub-optimal solution that would waste
time and effort
?

b) Are earlier versions of Jaws For DOS still available ?  If yes, please
let us know the source, terms etc.

c) Is there any other screen reading software that is more effective in a
DOS environment ?  Please educate.

Time is of the essence and this is a make or break situation for him.  So,
please chip in with your suggestions / solutions.

Thanks and regards
