Hi, thanks so much. I'll take a fresher look at this tomorrow, as I feel I'm
nearly there. I've currently just copied across the keyboard help,
KeyboardHelpHook and UnhookKeybaordHelp to my scripts. I can add my own
scripts to speak in the Keyboard HelpHook function, but stopping non
scripted keys are still getting through. I'm missing something, but
hopefully I'll see it with a refreshed brain :). Thanks again. Steve.

Hi Steve,
I'm not sure if I understand you.
If you install a hook in your application, for example
AddHook (HK_SCRIPT, "MyHook")
then inside the hook function "MyHook" you can allow a script to be
executed or not. All scripts had to pass the function and you alone
decide which scripts to execute.
If you further trap the keys with the TrapKeys function then the keys
were not sent to the application.
In the KeyPressedEvent of you application (or the like) the keys are
still arriving. So here you can decide what to do (for example start
your own script, end the hook and so on).
But please remember to uninstall the hook at the end. Otherwise the
default scripts are not running any more.
Hope this helps a little
Udo

Hi, a question on Jaws keyboard help.
I currently have a working solution that allows a user to turn on keyboard
help and get descriptions of specific keys in any particular window. All
of
this information is in a set of scripts that you switch to when pressing
jaws key plus 1. It maybe not the most elegant solution, as it still
allows
any undocumented keys to be processed by the application.
So, looking at the Jaws help, I'm wondering if anyone knows if the default
script could be modified to access the assigned keys I have, while
ignoring
any other key, so not letting it be processed. The lines of interest in
the
default jaws cripts are I think:
AddHook (HK_SCRIPT, "KeyboardHelpHook")
; ignore any keys not attached to scripts
TrapKeys(TRUE)
CaptureAllGestures(TRUE)
The line:
AddHook (HK_SCRIPT, "KeyboardHelpHook")
looks to me as if this "KeyboardHelpHook" is where the information is
taken
from. Of course I am probably totally wrong, but if I could find this, it
may give me clues to what to do. Otherwise, is there a way to use this
default script, but use information/keys I have in a set of scripts/ jkm
files etc.
THX Steve.
