Hi:

This indentation scheme sounds very cool.
I want to try it out.

Where can I download the scheme and setup instructions?

I did this, and the same thing happens: I get sounds for edit, button,
list, and the rest, just nothing for indentation. It also said I was
about to overwrite an existing file, so I told it to skip and, when
that did nothing, I told it to overwrite. Neither option produced
piano notes.
Yes, I am not great at it, but modifying a scheme seems easy enough
and I modified yours to work with single-space indents instead of
double space.

Hi Alex,
Try this first.

1. Use Insert+F2 and open Settings Packager.
2. With the File menu, open the sounds for stuff scheme.
3. Press the Import button.
4. Close Settings Packager.
5. Go into EdSharp and either temporarily with Alt+Insert+S, or permanently,
with Configuration Manager, for example, switch to the scheme.
6. Attempt to use the scheme and see if the sounds play.

One last thing. It sounds like you understand how to modify a scheme. Is
that correct?

I go to settings center and enter sound into the edit box. The last
option brought up is the sound scheme, set to sounds4stuff (indent 1),
which is Jim's scheme modified to work with one space instead of two.
As I said, most sounds from this scheme still play, it just refuses to
play the piano notes for indentation. Is there a way to install the
previous version of edSharp to see if the notes return?

Does the excerpt below from the History.txt file of EdSharp help?

Another approach to hearing indentation levels is a JAWS sound scheme
contributed by Jim Homme.  You can install it by pressing JAWSKey+F2 and
choosing Settings Packager.  In that program, press Control+O and enter
Sounds4Stuff.zip.  Then press Alt+I to import the settings.

Thanks, at least alt-i is now working. I really miss those piano
notes, though, since it was almost like being able to see the indent
levels, and was even easier than using braces!

I do not recall the steps to activate a sound scheme, but I recall
putting instructions in the EdSharp history of changes file, which is
accessible via the Help menu.  Otherwise, I hope Jim Homme can help,
since it is a scheme that he uses and contributed to the EdSharp
distribution.

The \s token you mentioned stands for white space characters in a
regular expression, but it is not a token in a typical C string.  The \s
token means a space, tab, vertical tab, carriage return, line feed, or
form feed character in a regular expression.  If you intend a space
character for indentation, you should be able to use a literal space
character.

Hi all,
I just updated edSharp to the latest version. I rely heavily on the
Sounds4stuff jaws scheme since I work in Python, but this latest
update seems to have broken the scheme. Sounds for edit fields, menus,
buttons, and so on still work, but my indentation sounds are gone. I
even set the edSharp indent character to \s instead of \t, but nothing
changed. Does anyone have an idea of what I could try? I installed the
optional scripts, which I did not do last time, but I doubt that would
make a difference since the rest of the scheme works as it did before.

On a related note, the indent level query, alt-i, does not work.
Despite my indent character being \s (I use spaces, not the tab key),
all lines report an indent level of 0.
