Yes, I understand.  It is not all that difficult, but it also complicates 
matters every time Freedom Scientific posts an update of JAWS!  That is why 
I am stillplaying around with a batch file and /  or script to simplify 
updates of all customized scripts in the user settings folder.

I still think a separate file for the new feature is more modular and easier 
to add with a simple Use statement than to paste code directly into the 
default.jss file.
