You are right. The Use statement alone will not pull in the keymap or
graphic assignments. As a developer, you will need to add these keymap
assignments manually by editing the JKM file in a texxt editor.
This is another reason why I like to provide a self installing package built
with JSX for passing on to other users. It will create a container file,
such as default.jss to add the use statement without modifying the
default.jss file from Freedom Scientific. It will also merge the associated
files like the keymap file the way you were expecting.
To make the JAWS Script Exchange (JSX) program build such a package, you
simply need to create the JSS file and its associated files. Adda line like
the one below at the very top of the jss file. Select all of them when
selecting files to zip in the JSX application. Select the version of JAWS
and language that you are using. Make sure that the radio button in JSX for
the merge function is set to "files are complete". Then press the Package
button.
;?Merge "default.jss" Add application volume control hotkeys from any
application?
The question at the end is not necessary unless you want a dialog to confirm
when installing. I use this when installing multiple script files and some
are optional.
