Summary of FSAPI.dll COM interface (JAWS 10 as reference):
function Disable as Bool
function Enable(Bool vbNoDDIHooks) as Bool
method Enable
function RunFunction(BStr FunctionName) as Bool
Tells JAWS to execute a function
function RunScript(BStr ScriptName) as Bool

function SayString(BStr StringToSpeak[, Bool bFlush = True]) as Bool
Instructs JAWS to speak a particular string
sub StopSpeech

A while back I asked how to do this but got no reply. Doug Lee informed
me on this list that there is a COM API that is part of a JAWS
installation. Previously, I had only known of a way for an application to
produce a speech message through JAWS by using a Win32 type of call to
JFWAPI.dll.
Although I did find references to a COM object model using a COM browser,
I could not figure out how to instantiate and use such an object. Can
anyone tell me how an application, other than JAWS, can call a COM method,
passing it a string, to produce a speech message through the currently
running JAWS?
This has become more important because JFWAPI.dll does not seem to
work under 64 bit Windows.
