Hi, EdSharp will speak the errors when you try to run your program. Once the errors are gone from your program, you would run it in the usual way, either via the command line or with a shortcut.

I could be wrong, but I believe that is how it works. You could always get saytools, put sayfile.exe somewhere, then make a bat file to run a py file and have sayfile.exe speak errors, maybe /c c:\python26\python.exe file.py 2> py_err.txt /c sayfile.exe py_err.txt Have a great day, Alex New email address: mehgcap@xxxxxxxxx ----- Original Message ----- From: "Haden Pike" <haden.pike@xxxxxxxxx> To: <programmingblind@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, September 12, 2009 12:51 AM Subject: Re: PYTHON INTERPRETOR > Simply pressing enter on the file has the disadvantage that if your > python script has errors, the console window will disappear before jaws > can read them.
