Hello all,
I was on here several months ago, trying to figure out how to write a
basic script for jaws that would speak a hard-coded message when a key
was pressed instead of speaking the keystroke itself. I am again
trying to solve this problem, but I cannot locate any responses I
received last time around. I am a long-time jaws user, and am
comfortable in Python and Java, but the Jaws scripting language seems
somewhat clunky and not as smooth or straightforward, though that is
from an self-proclaimed scripting newb.
Is there a simple way of doing this? That is, catch a keystroke, and
speak a message in place of speaking the keys pressed. I apologize
that I am asking again, but I now have more time than I had before. I
wish I could locate the emails I had from my last try, but I am not
sure where they would be.
I have read through the scripts to Jamal Mazrui's Edsharp program, but
I could not find where he set things up to speak custom messages. For
example, in that program with the scripts installed, jaws will say
"save" when control-s is pressed, and not "control s" at all.
