The more appropriate list for this message, and admittedly for my
reply as well, is the SkypeEnglish@xxxxxxxxxxxxx list. :)
Quick answers though:
Items 1 and 2 are better handled by Clisk
(http://www.dlee.org/skype/clisk/) if you don't mind typing commands.
Clisk does all sorts of autoActions, including priority and normal
autoAnswers and even automatic conferencing.
Item 3, mute/unmute, is already handled by Skype itself, on the Options/Hotkeys
page.
Item 4 is mostly if not completely handled by current scripts for
Skype 5.x: Find the file transfer entry in the message list of the
appropriate conversation, and JAWS will announce much of this. As for
notification of transfer completion, Skype itself makes a sound for
that.
Item 5, status change, is not so hard in Skype itself. There are
several ways to do it: The first is through the Skype menu's Status
submenu. You could also do it with a button on the main Skype screen,
as pressing the button brings up a Context menu of available statuses
you can use.
Item 6, notification of friends' mood text changes, can be handled in
Clisk with the "w" flag, though I don't remember if I've publicized
that one yet. Skypetalking may also handle that one.
And item 7, quick check of call status, is handled by the JAWSKey+T
"SayWindowTitle" command: Go to your live call's conversation window
and type JAWSKey+T. The scripts will tell you if the call is held,
muted, or includes video.
A final remark: I do not plan to implement autoActions or
status/profile/mood changes in contacts because that requires the
Skype API, the use of which directly from a JAWS script has
historically caused problems and requires JAWS 7.1 or newer even
though I still support JAWS versions going back as far as 6.0 as best
I can.
Please direct any further discussion to the aforementioned SkypeEnglish
list.
Thanks much for the input.

Hi sir,
these are some of my suggestion for future skype scripts. I hope this
suggestion will be studied carefully.
1. A key stroke must be implement to read our mood text and, if press
twice we can set our mood text
2. A feature must be invented that we can type a users skype name on to
edit box, and when the user call us, the script will automatically
answers the call. We can call this feature as (auto Action)
3. A key stroke must be created to mute and unmute microphone.
4. A keystroke must be commanded to read the file transfer status including
a. full size of the file
b transfer rate
c. size elaps and so on
d. notification when file sent had finish
5. A feature must be implement that can enable the user to change status
on the fly
6. Notification when our friends had changed their mood text
7. A key stroke to no our last or current call status
That's all for now. I hope this script will be more and more powerful in
future releases!
thanks to doug lee
