Hi Carlos. When I first saw your message I thought "well, that should be simple." But, it isn't simple. Maybe I'm just making it too complex.
While playing around I discovered that a key that is passedThrough (insert f3) is not spoken, but you get this long, message before pressing the key. So, you could press insert f3, listen to the message, then press the ` key, and hear the time. Not satisfactory? I don't blame you. So if I were doing this I would: Write a one line script that said script PassKeyThroughQuietly() PassKeyThrough() EndScript Put this script at the bottom of my default script. Then I would tie the PassKeyThroughQuietly to the ` key in the keyboard manager. But maybe someone else will have a better way to do this. I don't!

Listers, In the settings of talking desktop clock, there is a keystroke setup for anounceing the time. So I chose the grawv key sence we really don't use that key any way. Maybe that was not such a good idea? But it does work, the clock is saying the time, I just don't like hearing grawv before I hear the time spoken. Now I'm sure that we all know that the grawv key is just above the tab key I remember some time ago, or should I really say, some years ago. I went in to key labals and muted simbles, but that stopped all simbles from being spoken. I just now pressed the grawv key and talking desktop clock did tell me the time, however, Jaws said grawv first. Jaws speaking at that moment can make it kind of hard to hear the clock speaking, sence I'm using one of the clock's voices, Robby the robot. Thanks to all.
