I can verify both of these.

Quick question; why do we have a script for moving tracks around when it is accessible through the context menu (applications key)?

Thanks!,

Hi Gary,
I tested some of the script using Jaws 14, and Windows 7 64bit. I came across a couple of issues:
1. The commands to to to a track by number or move the current track to a track by number didn't do anything. (JAWSKey+a, g, and JAWSKey+a, m).
2. In the toolbars, pressing ctrl+tab causes Jaws to read grabber. I'm pretty sure there's a keyboard focus issue with the grabber which is at the start of each toolbar, and that it can be fixed for the next version of Audacity.

David.

Hi all,

I have just posted a new beta release of the JAWS script for
  Audacity.  This release features installer changes for
  multi-language support.  Currently English and Spanish are
  supported.  Silence Preview has also been updated to support
  Audacity 2.1.2.

I am particularly interested in feedback from people with
  non-English JAWS installations, since I don't have access to such an
  environment.

Please note that although the installer installs and compiles the
  scripts into the selected language folders, the JAWS script compiler
  always compiles the script files for the language of the
  currently-running version of JAWS.  Therefore, after installing you
  will need to run JAWS with each of the other languages and compile
  the scripts "manually".  This is a kind of silly implementation but
  it's the best I've come up with so far given the way the script
  ompiler works.  I am open to any suggestions!

The script has a new home.  The script is now hosted on GitHub.  You
  can download the 2.1.0-beta3 installer here.

The installer exe for the current "official release" is also there (although not the same binary file, it should have been built from the same source and should be functionally equivalent).

You can view the latest README. (This may be newer than the one in the beta 3 release.)

Let me know how it works for you.

Thanks.

Gary
