Hi Geoff,
Yes, I did. I haven't implemented my script yet, but I will in the near
future.
I have learned that there is no opt_ jcf option, GetJCFOption or
SetJCFfOption dealing with keyboardType.
After waiting for a week and sending a second note to JAWS Support, I
learned that, if I want the feature, I'd have to send in a request to have
the feature added to JAWS.
Jackie has suggested I use IniReadString and iniWriteString to modify the
JCF file.
This is what I'll do.
I would think that JFW should be able to know if you have an external or
laptop keyboard connected and act accordingly. But, who am I but a lowly
user.
Reed
