so you are saying: jaws sucks, window eyes do not, but i cant only support the good screen reader for what i am trying to do? I disagree. you can support only one, indeed. and in fact, this owuld be a reason for the complainers to actually try to get fs t change its policy. -----Mensagem original----- De: "Bryan Peterson" <bpeterson2...@cableone.net> Para: "Philip Bennefall" <phi...@blastbay.com>,"Gamers Discussion list" <gamers@audyssey.org> Data: Terça, 4 de Janeiro de 2011 07:32 Assunto: Re: [Audyssey] BGT and Screen Reader API's
