Hi Jeff
I prefer to use AppendToClipboard rather than SayString for debugging
messages. I put a CopyToClipboard statement into the AutoStart function to
clear the clipboard, then use the AppendToClipboard to write any debugging
information I want. Then when the script has run, I open or switch to
NotePad, or the favorite text editor, clear whatever it may contain, and
then paste the clipboard. Then I can study it all I want. As the e-mails
about piping a string variable to a txt file pointed out, it's not that
simple to write to a file from a JAWS script.

Subject: [jawsscripts] logging multiple debug statements for later
examination?
Hi Scripters.
as per subject line, If I've got a number of things going on in a script,
and I've got a number of SayString debug statements along the way gleaning
bits of information which will help me determine the accuracy of my logic
flow, or whatever the funky term is for that,
How might I most optimally log those to a file for later more careful and
thoughtful examination, rather than having them just all spoken out in a big
stream by jaws as the script proceeds, and which of course I forget by the
end of it? <smile.>
would I use some kind of iniwrite functionality or something? or do people
think it would be optimal to use the append to clipboard functionality and
just have all the debug statements shoved on there, for later pasting into a
file?
any info warmly appreciated.
