Thanks! It doesn't do me a lot of good, because I don't know anything, yet,
about scriptwriting, but, perhaps, in the future, documenting what you just
did, could save us a lot of hassle, with other problems, that might crop up,
along the way!
Thanks, again, for taking the time to reveal your thought process!

Subject: RE: winamp library
Hi well when winamp 5.2 was releced there were considerable changes to the
library system that maid it use an html control. At that time jaws was
unable to read said html control as there was no means of moving to it and
getting out of it.
I updated davids code to provide a notus when the library was active and f6
to allow for movement in to said control and out of it again. I also added
code that when the html control had focus the verchual cursor would fire and
thus read the html content. F6 at this time and still is used to move in
and out of these frames. The reason is that f6 is a standard windows
command to move threw frames. Also at this time code was added to read the
toggaling of the time display correctly a problem that has been in the jaws
scripts for quite some time. Chris the owner of this list precented that
bug to me at the time. Also the tree view in the library had this bad habit
of lusing focus when an option was selected at times. The scripts returned
the focus to the tree view unless the user him self changed it. A problem
witch was quickly corrected was that the jkm file included with the zip file
only had the new commands so if a person installed the scripts in to the all
users folder verses the personal users folder witch one should never do any
way it over wrote all other commands and only the new items were available.
Chris again the owner of this list found and reported the bug how ever not
being fully able to explain why he was having this problem it took some time
to find this problem.
Do to an internal change that fs maid for what ever reason to this day the
winamp scripts would not compile using jaws 7.1 this was corrected. Older
version of jaws did not have some of the features of the scripting langwige
so separate packages were then used for jaws five and six and seven had its
own.
Fs even though david and debby skale liked the new code and functionality fs
elected to use there own verenant of the code I created. F6 still works as
I investioned it. How ever they did nothing to point out that this was a
hot key as was done in my scripts and focus is lost a lot as you move threw
the tree view. So that is the history. What good it does you I know not
but as long as you are happy with it so be it.

OK, speaking of history, perhaps some of us novices need to understand the
chronology of the implementation of your scripts and the FS scripts,
because, frankly, some of us probably have no idea what you are talking
about. It would be very helpful, indeed, if you would be so kind as to
paint that history.

The hole idea was for these scripts to provide the ability to move about in
the library. These did infact serve this perpus and wer copied in
functionality in jaws 8.0 note in my view they did not do as good of a job
for the tree view luses focus quite a lot when selecting items
I took steps in my own code to prevent this but fs did not.
Also for thoughs of you having a problem using the book marks f6 does bring
the frame in to focus and you can use your arrow keys to move about in this
list. Hth

Jim,
Mac Norins, here. What about those scripts, that you wrote, back around
versions 5.22 and 5.23? Do they have any relevance here? I might be off
the track, but, maybe not... what do you think about that subject?
Regards,
Mac Norins

I trust your first sentence isn't an attempt at sardcasm.
The point is, before this problem reared its ugly head, when winamp launched
it gave me something I think is called the main window.
Anyway, I've solved the problem by downloading an older version of winamp
from oldversion.com, installing as winamp lite.
Now, when it launches, I get the "player window". That's more like
it!!!!!!!!
