That's my point. Get rid of the Task Switching comment altogether,
something which I have talked about before. Just have the list like Jim
was describing before so peple know how many icons are on the screen
they are switching to. But there's never been a point in the task
switching thing, it's just something I try to ignore. Hence, saying,
window, task switching, it also pointless.

I have to respectfully disagree. If I’m alt-tabbing, by definition,
I’m task switching. I was perfectly happy never hearing “task
switching”. If there was a way to make this an option to turn on or
off, fine, but to me it’s just extra verbeage.

Yeah, what Jim said. copy the way that narrator reads the icons and
tells you how many you have open, I think that would be a great feature
to have.

tell you. Well that you are task switching and the name of the task
you are switching to. The problem with this is that the feedback is
not consistent. The problem is also that you don't get an index count.

box. goldWave 1 of 3. Inbox Microsoft outlook 2 of 3. Desktop 3 of
3. Note so window-eyes tells me that I am in the task switching list
the first time I press alt+tab. If I keep holding down the alt key I
have not left the list so it just reports the name and index of the
task I am switching to. Then of course when I let go of the alt key I
am placed in that program I have just switched to.
