[JAWS-Users] Re: Managing photos
If Larry wants to discuss managing photos I see no problem with it after reviewing his original email to the list. He mentioned operating system ETC, so that's fine. This is sort of a gray area as topics go, but we'll let it go and see how it progresses.

[JAWS-Users] May first guide lines reminder message
Hello and welcome to the JAWS Users list. This list has been created for The purpose of discussing all aspects of the JAWS for Windows screen reader Program. So everything that pertains to JAWS is fair game. Such as asking about what software packages work well with JAWS or how to make them work even better with scripts, keyboard short cuts and so forth. Another example could be requesting information on how to do something in Microsoft Word, which as we all know works very well with JAWS, but you need to know how to do a certain task or want to learn a way to accomplish it more efficiently. Now this is a very important point in my opinion, asking the list for exact instructions every time is not a good thing to do for a major reason. It creates a dependency situation even if you don't realize it does. The ideal place I am hoping the list will arrive at some day is that everybody no matter how new they might happen to be with JAWS or computers will have the confidence to try things on their own, and yet feel if they get stuck the list will be there to help put them back on track. Trust me when I say that help is quicker to arrive for somebody who is well known to ask for it last than first. So try it yourself first what ever it might happen to be. If you get stuck then let the list know what you've done to try and resolve your current dilemma. Then I'm sure help will arrive with in short order. Next a post asking if there is a software package that does a specific task and works well with JAWS is perfectly fine. The rules of conduct are quite simple and straightforward. Be polite and Patient with others. There will be absolutely no fighting, and no bashing of Freedom Scientific on here at all. If you have a problem with them then I suggest you take it up with Freedom Scientific directly. Please try to keep subject lines relevant and descriptive as possible. Also any news letters except those that directly pertain to JAWS should not be posted to the list prior to receiving moderator approval. Attachments should never be sent to the list at all for any reason what so ever. When contacting any of the list moderators privately please be descriptive in the subject line as to the purpose of the message. Many of us simply delete messages from people we don't know. At the present time there are around 200 subscribers to this list, so we can't possibly know everybody on here. Also, if you have a question for the list that falls within the guidelines, then post it accordingly. Don't contact the management team with questions that are more appropriate for the list itself. Your question may or may not receive an answer for a number of reasons. Everybody should familiarize themselves with the content contained in the footer message that accompanies every message posted to the list. There you will find the group web address along with some other relevant information pertaining to contacting the management team ETC. It is very frustrating to read a post asking for the groups web address when the very next line states visit the JAWS Users List home page and the next line after that is the URL. Occasionally there might be some difficulty with your email address and you may receive an email from Google Groups asking you to reactivate your account. Please dont simply delete this message. Instead open it and follow the directions to reactivate your account of course after making sure it is from Google Groups. If you dont after receiving a number of such messages then we will figure that you no longer wish to be a member of the list and remove your email address. The discussion of anything illegal is absolutely forbidden, along with flirting or other such inappropriate activities. This is not a high tech swap shop or anything of that nature at all. This means that goods and or services will not be bought or sold using this forum. If you know a given subject is off topic then don't post it. Simply placing off topic in the subject line does not make it all right. Lastly please no jokes, virus warnings, recipes, safety tips, or pleas to help dying kids, should ever be forwarded to the list. My hope is that this list will always be a place where everybody no matter what their particular skill level can feel safe to ask any question at all with in the guidelines that I have set forth. It is my experience that such rules of conduct are important to keep good people on the list. --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ Visit the JAWS Users List home page at: http://www.jaws-users.com Address for the list archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/jaws-users-list%40googlegroups.com/ To post to this group, send email to jaws-users-list@googlegroups.com To unsubscribe from this group, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] Use the following form in order to contact the management team http://www.jaws-users.com/managers.php -~--~~~~--~~--~--~---

[JAWS-Users] Vista voice reconition.
Hello all. Has anybody tried the new speech recognition software that comes with Microsoft Vista? I have been messing around with the software for about 3 hours now. And have found that it is much easier to try and train than dragon naturally speaking. I am using the speech recognition software to type this e-mail. I find that in most applications, and forgiving commands, it seems to work very well. However, I have found that in programs such as Thunderbird and it seems to not know when to be in command mode or in edit mode. Does anybody know where a person could find out more information on the voice recognition software that comes with vista? I think I would really enjoy using this program if I can learn to teach it to work with the other software that I have.

[JAWS-Users] Re: Yahoo
Patti, This is a good question since I am also looking at using Yahoo messenger. However, I am running jfw 5.10 on this machine. Also, has anyone had any luck using the Miranda instant messenger program? I posted a question about that a while ago, but I don't think there were any replies.

[JAWS-Users] Re: Yahoo
I upgraded and find it less accessible. it doesn't read the incoming and outgoing messages. It also doesn't seem to have a sound to tell me when someone has instant messaged me, so I don't know someone is trying to get my attention. This is a pain because I communicate with the moderation team of a very large list I co-moderate through yahoo messenger. Lots of jaws cursor use in conversations.
