Jackie - Seems like I've missed a trick here! Talks Doesn't announce "smiley face" etc when :) etc are used, either in a message I create, or one that is sent to me! Have I missed something? - Andy ----- Original Message ----- From: "Jackie Cairns" <jackie.cairns@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Wednesday, December 03, 2008 1:39 PM Subject: [access-uk] Re: emoticons | Hi Andy and James | | As far as I can tell, colon, dash and right parenthesis is a smiley | face, while colon, dash and left parenthesis is a sad face. If I also | do just a colon and right parenthesis or colon and left parenthesis, | TALKS still announces smiley face and sad face respectively, so I'm not | sure if there is a distinction on the phone's display between the two | types of smiley and sad face. But whatever they are, and however you do | them, I adore them!! (smiley face). How do you make them in an Email | message though? | | | Jackie Cairns | Braille Support Adviser | Email: Jackie.Cairns@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx | Sight and Sound Technology | Welton House North Wing | Summerhouse Road | Moulton Park | Northampton | NN3 6WD | Telephone: 01604 798024 | Fax: 01604 798090 | Web: www.sightandsound.co.uk | | -----Original Message----- | From: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf | Of James Scholes | Sent: 02 December 2008 21:56 | To: Andy Collins | Subject: [access-uk] Re: emoticons | | Hi Andy, | :) is a smily face, :-) is a big smily face, :( is a sad face, and :-( | is a big sad face.
