Hello Daniel.
Remember starting with Jaws for Windows version 6.0 you can actually have
two sets of the same scripts. Jaws will first look in the settings folder
under your username and if it does not find a copy of the scripts under your
user name then it will look in the folder that contains the scripts for all
users of the machine. Your personal settings folder is empty until you
either place your own scripts and there are modify the default scripts. If
you modify the default scripts and then compile the script file it will be
saved to your personal settings folder. This can be nice so if your copy
was not functional you would not affect anyone else's copy. Also your
speech rate can be different than someone else's on a multiuser machine. It
is good practice to not modify the files for all users.
I hope this helps.
Chris.

Subject: What are these settings/enu files in my JFW 7, please?
note: I have just run the Jaws repair on my several days old installation of
Jaws 8, taking the option to let the program remove personal script files
I'd copied, perhaps mistakenly in some cases, into the new version's
settings/enu folder. Then I copied, again, only the third party script files
I knew were right to copy: Audible manager, AdAware, Spyware Blaster, plus
one mysterious file for Open Book without which Open Book won't use Jaws as
I set it up to before (by unchecking Enable Sleep Mode in default.jcf and
choosing No Speech in the Open Book settings/speech menu(.. And I think
that's it. So my questions below are about script files that are in my Jaws
7, but which I haven't yet copied over to Jaws 8 this time, awaiting some
well-informed advice.
There are some files I'm not sure what to do with. For example, what are the
files whose names look like _core_ and so forth? What is the filename
splash? What are the three files with Jaws extensions with the filename
Manager (as opposed to audible manager)? And if, as George says, every major
Windows application has its own JFW script files,why are there no such
things at all in my Jaws 8 settings/enu folder, even though, as you can see
below (I hope, if the files list pane of Jaws 7/settings/enu pastes in)
there certainly are in Jaws 7. For a moment, I thought I recalled learning
that some files of this sort aren't created until you actually run that
application using the new Jaws, but I've been running Outlook express and no
Outlook Express 5-6 or Outlook Exp[Express files have yet appeared in my
Jaws 8 settings/enu folder.
Last, my dictionary files. As it stands, I seem to have lost some or all of
my dictionary tweaks in Jaws 8, and I'd like to restore them. But the
dictionary-related files in my old settings/enu folder, below, don't look
like what George describes. They use the filename dictionary, and have three
of the familiar JFW extensions. Can't remember if one of those is .jdf,
until I paste in the filenames and take a look. But I'm confused about this.
I hope someone can respond to some or all of these questions. I know the
above may look complicated so, please, read it over carefully, just as I
read George's instructional post several times before doing anything.

routine didn't work very neatly, and I've just apspent more time than I want
to admit going through what I pasted in and removing all the extra
information on each line, which might have been helpful to someone who
understaood the info, but it was all run together.
