    Are you talking about the indefinite article a in English Kerby? Being a 
linguist, I don't know what a "hard A is.

  Subject: jaws and the hard a


  Hi, is there a way to modify the jaws dictionary to somehow say the a's 
correctly?  For example, I want jaws to somehow know when to say the hard a and 
when not to say the hard a because as we know, sometimes the word a is said 
differently depending on the context of the sentence.  Thanks.

  Kerby

    Hi,

    Some alternatives to bear share can be found at

    http://www.jfwlite.com/

    go to the programs page. Press your h key a few times and you will find a 
heading of "music sharing applications". See if something there is what you are 
looking for.

    There you will find a direct download for an older version of bear share. I 
have heard that the newest version is not so screen reader friendly.

    Also, if you or anyone wishes to try winMX, and needs some additional help 
I have a tutorial written for it. Just write me off list and I will be happy to 
send it to you.

    Hi List,

    What is with this new version of BearShare?  All of the sudden they want 
    more info about you than the IRS plus a photo!  Not only that, JFW has a 
    terrible time with reading part of the installation/sign up screens.  I am 
    not going to give them the kind of info they want, so is there another 
    choice for file sharing programs?
