This is to let users of EdSharp and FileDir know that I have made fixes in the last few months that improve compatibility with screen readers on 64-bit Windows. I do not have Win64 to test with myself yet, but think I have found ways of making the various screen reader API calls work in a more robust manner. So, if you have experienced a problem with JAWS, NVDA, or Window-Eyes on 64-bit Windows, you may wish to make sure you have the latest EdSharp

With FileDir, I also fixed a problem with conversion of Word 2007 .docx files. This means that the Question mark command, Shift+/, will read the contents of that file type, among others, when such a file is focused in a directory list. I also fixed the Detect Encoding command, Shift+2 (the @ symbol), which lets you know the encoding of a text file, e.g., ASCII, UTF-8, etc.
