The scripts are named the same as the program they work with. So if you
have a program with a name that matches the scripts, you're good. Some of
the names are kind of obscure, though. If you go into the program and
press insert-q, JAWS should report the name of the program and the scripts
that are running. For example, when I hit insert-q right now, JFW says
'Eudora settings are loaded; The program being executed is Eudora.exe e u d
o r a dot e x e.'
this tells me that there are scripts for Eudora (Eudora settings) and that
I am running Eudora, the program that the scripts support.
Sometimes you will hear instead
'default settings are loaded; Eudora.exe'.
This would tell you that although Eudora is running, the default scripts
are working. The default scripts don't know enough about Eudora to control
it smoothly, so that would be bad news.
MS Word is called winword, and you want the winword scripts to be loaded.
When people write scripts of their own, though, sometimes they don't add
the line identifying the scripts. So, for example, for Ad-Aware, JFW would say
'Default scripts are loaded. the program being executed is ad-aware.exe--a
d - a w a r e.' Actually, though, if the Ad-aWare scripts are loaded
without the script that identifies them, they're still running. You can
tell that, in this case at least, by pressing insert-h for the help
commands. Ad-Aware hotkeys will be listed.
The Windows Messenger and MSN scripts are identified, so if you press
insert-q while in those programs you should be able to tell that the
scripts are loaded.
So the answer to your question is (Yes, I finally got around to it--lol) if
you have scripts already for the programs you are running, you don't need
to download more from anywhere. It's just when there aren't the ones you
need in the settings\enu folder that you need to look for more.
