Re: Scripting with Window-Eyes and Homer Layout

Matthew, I don't follow? Window Eyes doesn't have, from my memory, any keyboard shortcuts that use the Windows key, unless they've been redefined as such. AS regards the others, what keyboard shortcut scheme would you find more useful? I bet it could be scripted. You can more or less rebuild the Window Eyes UI if it's what you really wanna do.

Yes, though a little tangential, I have a problem with window eyes taking over all the windows based hot keys such as control alt, control shift, and so on. I even hate the fact that it uses the windows key so much as it really screws with my personal WinKey hotkeys.

Sorry, but the biggest issue of Window Eyes is still not solved by this script. 
It still requires to use the num pad.
The other things doesn't matter if this is not solved, because it doesn't allow using the same keys as with Jaws.

Subject: Scripting with Window-Eyes and Homer Layout
To anyone who is a JAWS user yet open to trying the scripting language of 
another screen reader, Homer Layout may ease the transition.  It is a
Window-Eyes script that emulates the JAWS keyboard interface, while also 
incorporating functionality unique to Window-Eyes.  In my opinion, its
scripting engine is the most powerful that has ever been part of a screen 
reader, regardless of platform.

More information about Homer Layout is at
http://gwmicro.com/scripts/Homer_Layout

To try it, you would first need to install Window-Eyes 6.1, licensed or
demo version, and then the 7.0 public beta available at
http://gwmicro.com
This script is in late beta (I hope!), so I appreciate feedback to resolve 
remaining issues.

For the record, I have no financial relationship with GW Micro.  I have
participated in the beta testing process of the latest version.

Regards,
Jamal
