One source of JAWS scripts, which is by no means comprehensive, is the
web site
http://NonvisualDevelopment.org
It includes a tag for JAWS-scripting related material, and there are
several such links. Any JAWS scripter (or other developer) is welcome
to create an account on this Drupal-based site. Reading or downloading
material may be done by anyone, including anonymous visitors. By
creating a free account (no intrusive info is sought, mainly just an
assurance that you are a human user), one can add content to the site,
including blog posts with file attachments, such as a zip archive or
executable installer of JAWS scripts.
If anyone has difficulty adding content to the site, please feel free to
speak up on either this list, or the one with the address
program-l@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
Either Jim Homme or I will try to resolve the problem. We want to
support contributions by as many people as possible!
Thanks,
Jamal
