[pchelpers] Re: Invisible Attachments


I was asking about the *.EML file because  if it gets saved, the file
would be quite large, about 1.5 times the size of the file that's
supposed to be attached, which would be about 4 megs.  If you have
WinZip, I think that'll work on the *.EML file, although you might first
have to rename it to *.UUE.

Being a DOS person, I'm accustomed to using the keyboard to move around.
People who think that the mouse is the only way to use Windows (and
that's most people) typically watch and ask how I can work so fast.
<grin>  I have my doubts about whether or not some MS programs are
blind-friendly, since some of them are sufficiently difficult to figure
out how to work with the keyboard that I have to use the mouse, which,
of course, annoys me, because it slows me down.

I'm blind and use a synthesisor speech programme, I don't scroll, but I
use my tab key to move along the www urls etc, in a mail, and after one
or two moves it puts you on the attached file, then I press enter and
voila! Or usually! the "save attachment" option in the "file" menu is
disabled too.
