Wierd, I had no idea jaws did that - it would actually be neat if sapi could
have an accessible dictionary for people to use. That's just me though.
So basically your saying when jfw or window eyes is installed it does some
behind the scenes work on the sapi default dictionary? Or you mean using the
sapi voices in conjunction with jfw?
thanks

Hi Dark,
That's not necessarily a bug. Comparing a screen reader to a software
speech system like Sapi isn't really a good comparison in this instance.
While text to speech systems like Sapi have there own dictionaries that
tells the synth how to say various words, numbers, and punctuation marks,
etc any third-party software such as a screen reader can over ride the
voice's built in speech dictionary. For example, in Jaws you can configure
it to say numbers as whole numbers, single digits, or in pares. So a
string of numbers like 1, 9, 8, 6 can be spoken as 1,986, 19 86, or 1 9 8
6. That's a simple case where the screen reader overrides whatever the
text to speech voice would ordinarily say given the same number in another
application.
Bottom line, just becauseJaws says something correctly it doesn't mean the
Sapi voice or application using Sapi is buggy. It is more likely that
Jaws, Window Eyes, Hal, etc has performed some extra speech processing
behind the scenes and is more accurate.

Hi Che.
sinse that line reads fine with JAws and not with Sapi, I would actually
class it as a bug, ---- I'm only using scripting because it won't
automatically read.
I've tried the command with what I believe to be the correct syntax in
the trigger dialogue, ----- as I detailed, but either I did something
wrong, or there is something more intrinsic to why sSapi won't read a
line written in betwene less than greater than prompts.
I'm really not sure sinse as I said, apparently it reads fine with other
speech methods.
Beware the Grue!
