IsSpeaking is in the FSDN, but only for the PAC Mate.

Hi,

Yes. There is a function called IsSpeaking. It returns 1 if JAWS is currently speaking, 0 if not.

Jim,

If I recall correctly (Andrew, correct me if I'm wrong), I think we are actually using jfwapi.dll, but we didn't see a function that allows you to detect if jaws is currently speaking in the list. Is there something specific you had in mind here?

Hi,
I may not be remembering this correctly. I thought that you could make jfwapi.dll run a JAWS script or function. If you can run a function, you may be able to get a return code back from it. If I had the scripting reference here, I'd look up some candidate function names and send them to you. Sorry about that.

Might it be possible to do two checks?  First is if the sound card or
other synthesizer is working.  Second test is if jaws is sending ascii
to the synthesizer.  Answers both have to be yes for complete success.

We researched this one where I work. We have not found a function that
does this yet.

Hello,

Does anyone know of a JAWS API function that allows you to detect
whether JAWS is currently speaking?
