Well when people write those in books etc I open the default dictionary, =
then
add the periods as period space period space period. In the replacement =
box,
I put period period period without spaces. This makes it sound like it =
is
trailing off. However, what you could put in there is the word break or
section. This should work.

Hi List.
I've been messing about with the default dictionary in version 8 to try =
and=20
find a way to stop JAWS from announcing the following;
period period period
I receive a couple of newsletters in which the author always breaks up=20
sentences by inserting three periods broken by a space, so its period =
space=20
period space period.
I can't find any way of telling JAWS to ignore these three spaced =
periods=20
and just move on to the next piece of text. I've tried entering the =
exact=20
text into the dictionary and telling JAWS to treat it as a space, but =
this=20
just doesn't work. It does stop it from announcing three periods, now =
its=20
only two I hear!
Can anyone suggest a method that might achieve what I'm after?
Regards.
