Hi Richard, Maybe if you go to http://www.nvda-project.org and talk to the developers, you can get some good answers. I know that much of that program is written in Python. I'm just a beginner in Python, and probably wouldn't be able to give you much help. Other than testing, that is. Thanks.

The center frequencies and the lengths of the pulses are being controlled by the underlying Java program. Any idea as to how the two programs might be interacting? If they are, I would like to learn how to capitalize on that.

Are you sure that NVDA is not emitting the tones? Thanks.

Essentially, it uses a mouseMove listener and emits a pulse each time an event of that type is fired. The audio results are OK, but not great. However, when I start NVDA and have it running, the audio results are great. The output stream of audio pulses becomes very uniform, whereas without NVDA running, the output stream of audio pulses is not uniform at all. Something about having NVDA running is causing the Java program to perform much better, which is exactly the reverse of what I have come to expect during many years of computer programming. I am running Vista Home Premium on a 64-bit HP Laptop, but this Java program is compiled using the 32-bit javac. Any ideas as to what might be going on? Dick Baldwin -- Richard G.
