"hey olusegun, any chance of getting the window eye source code?"

Hmm, chief, I'm not that smart!  Be that as it may, I do enjoy venturing
into the wacky world of legalese and trying to make sense of it as best I
can.  Maybe V F O will hide Window-Eyes for another 50 years; I'll be close
to being gone then and all I'll be able to do is inspect my 9 feet space and
begin creeping into it slowly.  

Oh well, in that period of time, if things continue as they are now, Apple,
Google and Windows may eat everything up.  The next generation of blind
individuals will probably barely care about throwing darts at Window-Eyes
and its long-lost friends!

Anyway, if I happen to reincarnate, I'll bring back with me a better brain
and be a lot more smarter than I am presently.

Sincerely,
Olusegun

You have never run a business.  Neither have I, but as has been said before, 
take this example: you, a business owner,  paid money for this
product.  Your main reason for doing that was that you wanted to put it out 
of business, to cut out the competition.  So what kind of sense does it make

thing is they can't kill window eyes as long as people choose to use it. 
and if people keep sharing and passing it around then it won't die. if 
NVDA can only get network installs and citrix support it'll really cut 
into the jaws profits.

hey olusegun, any chance of getting the window eye source code?

Copyrights can, and do expire!  That's why there are so many free books out
there in the wilderness!  Since V F O or whatever name it calls itself no

Have you heard of Just Click?  Well, Amazon patented it almost forever.
This patent just expired and Amazon can't stop anyone from using or
modifying it for use on any product including the world wide web.

A good question for V F O or its functionaries will be how to convince a
court that its copyright of Window-Eyes is still valid when the product is
NO LONGER being developed.  Should be interesting, but I believe they'll
lose their teeth in the process!

Only sort of.  The serial number is assigned to a specific person, so
the name and any other information that is asked for during installation
would need to be the same for both people. So, if you gave me your copy
and did not tell me your information, your copy, on my PC would still be
a demo copy.

There has never been an online activation. I doubt that you can get a

Hi David,

Window Eyes had a heading or department known as APP CENTRAL. This is 
where you could find apps that had been developed for Window Eyes and 
I presume approved by the program developers for use by everyone.  It 
was easy to look through the collected apps and find ones that looked 
interesting and put them on your computer.
From what I understand, there is no such collection in what in JAWS 
is called scripts, which can be browsed through to find scripts that 
are interesting and can be installed on individual computers.
If this is true, what is the use in writing scripts if only a select 
few can find them. They should all be kept in one, easy to locate 
place for general use.

Thank you for answering my question.

Hi all!
I just listened to the latest FS Cast for JAWS 2018 as well, and it 
is the best version of JAWS that has come out in years. I have been a 
JAWS user since 2001 with version 3.7 LOL! I would say that the 
features that are being included in this 2018 version, are the best 
since version 12. That is a long time ago. JAWS will now do pretty 
much of what Open Book does, but just not advanced. You can use JAWS 
2018 to scan .JPG images, and JAWS will read any text to you that is 
in that image. You are in virtual PC cursor mode, so you can copy and 
paste the text into a Word document. The new installer will be very 
good as well. When JAWS updates throughout the year, only the new fix 
will be installed instead of an entire new copy of JAWS.

This will save a lot of time with a slow internet connection!
Give this FS Cast a listen!
I feel for all of you, but once you get used to this new version of 
JAWS, you will slowly forget Window Eyes. JAWS, and a laptop web cam, 
will now act like KNFB reader on the iPhone. You can just use the Web 
Cam on your laptop, take a picture of print, and JAWS will do the 
OCR. This is very powerful.

Take care, guys!
Please ask me any questions, because I even script for JAWS.

if we is no longer sold supported or activated then maybe we should try 
and get its source code and put it up on github so others can develop 
window eyes as an open source project.

window-eyes open source?

hi

Is there any possibility since window eyes is no longer supported to get 
the window-eyes source code make it open source and put it up on the 
github website? then other developers could keep developing window eyes.

Re: question about re installing wineyes

2017-09-09 Thread David via Talk
Big question is, of course, to what extend VFO really has taken over the 
Copyright of WinEyes. If you notice in the latest installation, it still 
says the Copyright is for AISquared. To what extend does VFO own the 
Copyrights under that company name? An owner might well own the company, 
and the right to sell and distribute the product, but it might not own 
the Copyright.


Let's give you an example. In Sweden, Europe, there is a manufacturer of 
household appliances, worldwide know, named Electrolux. You live in USA, 
and might well start a company named Electrolux US, which in turn buys 
just about - OR even ALL - the shares of the Swedish company. You now 
own the company, but do you own their buildings, their production 
equipment, or even their copyrights? Not necessarily. Depends all on 
what exactly is included in the take-over. Even the very designer of the 
laundry-machine, might be the Copyright holder, meaning that he in fact 
could let several factories manufacture slightly modified versions of 
the same machine, without asking you as the company owner.


We will turn it all over, and give a contra-example.

Canon introduced a portable, book-sized ink-printer, back in 1990. It 
later on was distributed by Brother, and I do hold HP. Difference was 
that the original Canon printer had physical buttons, whereas the 
copy-products had only touch-fields. Oh, yes, and the cover was 
differently colored from one brand name to the other. Would now Brother, 
or HP, hold any copyright to the design of the printer? Likely Canon 
still held its copyright, but the others might have copyright on the 
midifications in appearance, as well as the modification they had in the 
drivers or electronic modifications they might have agreed on inside the 
unit. Each of the actors could have ended the sale of the unit at any 
given time, leaving the others the fuller market share.


Exactly

     WHAT

did VFO buy? The company, OK. But did they buy the actual product? Do 
they have the code dug down in some drawer? Or, did Doug throw it into 
his briefcase, the day he cleaned out his office? What was in that merge?


My greatest suggestion here, would be if someone would be kind to call 
the VFO, and ask them straight forwardly, exactly what copyright will be 
resting on the WinEyes product.


Furthermore, it might be worth to ask, to what extend VFO would ever 
take any steps toward copies of WinEyes. Specially so, since WinEyes at 
the end was given away, for all Office users.


For International users, there might be even more to the story, since 
they might be using a localized version of the screen reader, and I do 
not know if the local dealer, or translator, might have some kind of 
work on the software, that might have been included in the Copyrights. 
Instead of doing all the speculations here on the list, I do suggest 
someone check it up, and please come back and let us know your findings.


True, copyrights do eventually expire, and for all we know, it might 
expire soon enough. Patents for instance, sometimes only lasts for a 
decade. Music might only last for a couple of decades. And according to 
Gutenberg, I do seem to remember copyrights only goes back to 1937, 
unless the copyright somehow has been renewed. But even so, the 
copyright rules might differ from one country to another. Doug did tell 
me once, that some countries in which WinEyes was being sold, had 
copyright rules that contradicted those of USA, hence the localized 
versions of the screen reader would be under special applicable 
juridistictions.


I want to clarify, that I have no intention for anyone to wildly copy 
the screen reader. Yet, I do hold it would be in place, to get in touch 
with VFO - and have them clarify exactly what would apply, should anyone 
help out existing WinEyes users, who would happen to have lost their 
installation copy. In other words, the way I read this discussion, we 
are not talking about distributing anything to new, potential users. We 
are talking about those who already have had a legal attachment to the 
screen reader, while it was still being developed and maintained. For 
new, or future users, totally different aspects might be applicable. 
This might be good to stress, in the query to VFO, as it might affect 
the very reply given. I am in no position to predict the outcome of such 
contact with VFO, but I am sure most users of the screen reader might be 
interested in the answer.

Copyrights can, and do expire!  That's why there are so many free books out

now, will eventually become useless and worthless!

Have you heard of Just Click?  Well, Amazon patented it almost forever.
This patent just expired and Amazon can't stop anyone from using or
modifying it for use on any product including the world wide web.

A good question for V F O or its functionaries will be how to convince a
court that its copyright of Window-Eyes is still valid when the product is
NO LONGER being developed.  Should be interesting, but I believe they'll
lose their teeth in the process!

Copyrights can, and do expire!  That's why there are so many free books out
there in the wilderness!  Since V F O or whatever name it calls itself no
longer supports or develops Window-Eyes, any copyright it may claim, if not
now, will eventually become useless and worthless!  

Have you heard of Just Click?  Well, Amazon patented it almost forever.
This patent just expired and Amazon can't stop anyone from using or
modifying it for use on any product including the world wide web.

RE: question about re installing wineyes

2017-09-09 Thread Rod Hutton via Talk
Thanks, Carol.

That's what I assume, and so why I'm counselling caution about distributing 
Window-Eyes even though VFO claims that it will no longer be developed.
Besides, being their product, they can do whatever they want with Window-Eyes 
in the future, even resurrect it, should they choose to do so.

Best,

Rod

Hi Rod,

Yes, you are correct.  Even if the company is gone, the copywright is 
still there.  It is the same as a person writing a book.  The book can 
be copywrighted for as long as someone wishes to keep it going.  So, AI 
may have forwarded the copywright which would now fall on VFO to 
continue to maintain that, even though the product is no longer being 
distributed.

Re: really impressed with Jaws2018

2017-09-09 Thread Russ Kiehne via Talk
A couple of days back I contacted Mike from Access Solutions.  He told me 
that the vfo group has made it a top priority to fix the tripletalk and 
dectalk issues in jaws 2018.

Hi Russ!

I hope so too. I'm using the TripleTalk Mini with Window-Eyes 9.5.4.0. I
would love to use it in JAWS when I install it after building a new
midtower that I'm gathering parts for. There is nothing like hardware
speech. I started out with the DoubleTalk card in Vocal-Eyes and used it
with Window-Eyes until I no longer had a computer with an ISA slot,
upgraded to TripleTalk PCI and used it until the driver became too old for
Window-Eyes 9.5.3, I think it was, and switched to the TripleTalk Mini. I
will really miss that speech if I can someday no longer use it.

I just listened to the FS cast for Jaws 2018.  You can set verbosity levels
for what is spoken on the web.  You can take a picture of a file and ocr it
with Jaws very impressed.

It's my understanding it doesn't matter what name you put in, it's the 
serial number that matters.

Only sort of.  The serial number is assigned to a specific person, so
the name and any other information that is asked for during installation
would need to be the same for both people. So, if you gave me your copy
and did not tell me your information, your copy, on my PC would still be
a demo copy.

Hi Loy,

Sorry, I wasn't clear.  I was referring to why you thought it would be 
okay for someone to use someone else's copy of WE simply because it was 
no longer being developed.
I would think it is still the property of VFO, and, therefore, 
infringement of copyright to let someone else use it.


Thanks,

If you are in the US, you never had to activate WE. I think in some 
countries you had to have a dongle.

   If you truly know this, then, that's fine.

   If you can explain this a bit, I'd appreciate it.

   There has never been an online activation. I doubt that you can get a 
downloadable copy from VFO now, but if you can get a copy from someone 
else then you could install it. Being it is no longer being sold or 
developed then using some one else's copy would not matter.

Hi Darrell or anyone!

So, that means that I would have to know what script I am looking for
exactly, or I wouldn't be able to find  it?

Is there a way to find out when a new script is released such as an FS news
only list or if I supscribed to one of the JAWS lists?

App Central is great. It's too bad no one ever thought of having a scrip
central for JAWS users.
