hi well I love the new winamp converter. it works wonderful and is
extremely user friendly with jaws. I like it so much I just might get rid
of dmc and use winamp for everything.
so I was converting a large number of files to day so I can put them on a
friends mp3 player when he comes more correctly to make mp3 cds that his
player will play and I saw that the jaws page down command does not read
any thing helpful while sitting in this dialog.
the information is of course at hand if you want to use the jaws or
invisible cursor and read the window. or you could use jaws b to read the
hole window but the first means you have to press a lot of keys and the
second reads more then you need it to.
so I wrote this little script to read the information and in an order that
is pleasing to the speech user.
just open the script manager jaws key zero paste the below text in your new
empty file press control s close the script manager with alt f4 and now jaws
key page down will read helpful information.
Script sayBottomLineOfWindow ()
SaveCursor ()
var string status
let status = GetDialogStaticText ()
InvisibleCursor ()
JAWSPageUp ()
let status = status+GetLine ()
NextLine ()
let status = status+GetLine ()
SayString (status)
EndScript
note the SayString was used to make sure the text on your Braille display if
you have one does not change as the display already has most of this
information on it already.
hope it helps.
