[nvda] Re: nvda or thunder?

I think that it should be pointed out the format of the NVDA version number. It is R425 instead of 4.25. Boy wouldn't we be far along if NVDA were at that version number! <Grin> NVDA, to what I've heard, is still considered experimental code thus it has not yet adopted a version numbering scheme beyond the revision numbers that SVN assigns it.

Hi Aruni,

That is great news.  The web site where I downloaded NVDA is at :
http://www.nvda-project.org/

The latest version that is posted there is 4.25 dated March 4.  Is there
a different web site to download the latest version?  Is the "source
trunk version" a different version than is posted on the site mentioned
above?

Thanks again,

Keith

Hello, the latest source trunk version has incorporated sapi4 drivers
and so you can use Any sapi4 synth including IBM with NVDA. 
Thanks

Hi,

Will Thunder work on Windows 98?   My classroom computers are 98 boxes.
Well, at least all of them except for mine.  I don't like them on my
computer!

I have been using NVDA quite a bit more lately.  I find that I only have
to run my other screen reader for running spell check in Word and
Outlook.  I would like to see  the ability to read by paragraph too. The
SAPI voices are growing on me.  I am just so use to Eloquence!

This is not meant to be a criticism.  Just hopeful suggestions.  I am
very happy with the level of access we have with NVDA.

For who ever sent the link to 1st autorun express, thank you!  I learned
a lot and I can now generate my own custom autorun files.  It is very
accessible with NVDA and a wizard generates the code.  I don't seem to
get the good results with google that others have.  I guess it is all
about putting in the right searchable words  So thanks for the "simple"
search you forwarded.

.

Keith

The only thing that I liked with thunder is that it had SAVI 4 support.
I'm not saying anything about get SAPI 4 support for NVDA because I know you're still working on it. Thunder seems to not save your voice settings. Thunder cannot work on USB keys or CD's as far as I know. You have to install thunder. For me, it crashes a lot. But, it does work sorta 
good.

As you can get both without cost to yourself, try them both, see which
works for you, and if it turns out that one is good in one situation but
the other works better in the other, then why not have them both
installed and use which ever is most appropiate for the task.

Personally I prefer the opensource nature of NVDA, but if you aren't a
programmer then this may be less of a pull to it.

As I think I heard in the Linux world mentioned about the LSR
screenreader people ask why write another rather than all work on one,
and the response is that choice is good. You have a choice, and you are
free to make a choice, right down to what you will use for every task,
something which the commercial screenreaders didn't lend themselves to,
so take advantage of the situation. Sorry if this doesn't seem most
helpful, but I don't know what style of screenreader you like, you are
the person who knows that best. I never really liked Jaws, but there are
many happy Jaws users.

Hi folks,

I would like to get you're opinion on which free screen reader is
better, NVDA or Thunder? They both use MSAA.
