The scripts and installer are intended to work with JAWS 10 and
above on
Windows XP and above, either 32 or 64-bit.
Version 3.0
December 21, 2010
Made hotkeys for reading particular message fields work more
reliably:
Alt+1 through Alt+5 for saying or spelling (when repeated) the
From, To,
CC, BCC, or Subject fields. Press Control+Shift+C to copy the
last
field spoken to the clipboard.
Fixed the Page Urls command, Alt+P. Note that depending on the
number
of urls in the message, there may be a significant delay in
extracting
them. Repeat Alt+P quickly to virtualize the list. Press Enter
on an
item in the list to download it.
Previously, Alt+N or Alt+P could be used in an open message to go
to the
next or prior message in the message list. Now this may be done
with
Alt+PageDown or Alt+PageUp. Also, Alt+Period and Alt+Comma
duplicate
this functionality. A new variation uses Control rather than Alt
and
opens the target message. This is similar to how Control+Period
and
Control+Comma work for navigating open messages in Microsoft
Outlook or
Outlook Express. Control+PageDown and Control+PageUp duplicate
this.
Control+Slash may be used to read the currently open message
instead of
navigating to another one.
Made the reading of message columns configurable. Use the new
Script
Options command, Alt+Shift+O, to define what columns in a message
list
are automatically spoken. An edit box lets you specify a
sequence of
characters corresponding to the initial letters of one or more of
the
following message fields to be spoken: CC, From, Subject and To.
Use a
lower case letter to hear only the data in the field, if any.
Use an
upper case letter to hear the field label spoken before the field
data.
The default sequence is as follows:
fstC
This means that the From (sender) field will be spoken, followed
by the
Subject field, and then the To (recipient) field. Since these
letters
are lower case, field labels will not be spoken before the data.
The
last letter, however, is a capital C, so if a CC recipient is
found, the
word "CC" will be spoken before it. This helps to differentiate
CC from
To recipients when hearing a message summary in the list.
In order for the scripts to find certain fields (the To and CC
fields),
Thunderbird must be configured to show the message preview pane.
This
may be toggled with the F8 key. A new script attached to this
key will
say either "Message Preview On" or "No Message Preview" depending
on the
result of the toggle.
In case changes in this version of the scripts inadvertently
reduce
functionality you experienced in the prior version, it is still
available at these locations:
