Doug,
Thanks for that information on your own script repository.
It astounds me that Freedom Scientific never established same as
a service to the JAWS User Community. They wouldn't have to give their
blessing to the scripts, either, as a "Use at your own risk," warning would
work just fine and the community as a whole would likely be very good at
policing whether any "rogue script" were placed there and spread the word.
I actually prefer community policing to any attempt to vet the scripts
before being made available as that would make it well-nigh impossible to
get things out there in a timely manner.
I just find it sad that there are almost certainly thousands
upon thousands of scripts that might be reusable for many others,
especially for esoteric software that few use, that no one else can get
to. There's an awful lot of reinvention of the wheel going on.
Brian

any central location per se. My own public scripts are listed at
http://www.dlee.org but of course there are many scripts out there that
are not mine.

As the years have gone by I keep asking myself this question, as it seems
like there have been untold thousands of these developed for various
reasons but there seems to be no single place, or several spots, where one
can go to check if there does exist a JAWS Script for a given program or to
implement a set of functions.
There exists at least one I know of for NVDA:
https://addons.nvda-project.org/index.en.html
I imagine that at least one repository, possible multiple repositories, of
JAWS Scripts that are not being created for sale must exist, but I have no
idea where. If anyone knows the location or their locations, please share.
