Dave,
It's been so long since I installed the scripts for Sib 5 that I'd even have to 
go look for them.  I'm sure they're on my desktop somewhere.   If/when I find 
them, I'll try installing them in JAWS 8 and see how that goes.  None of it is 
emergent.  I'm just trying to prepare the way forward.
