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.

Businesses buy other businesses every day to either kill the competition or incorporate the technology into their own product lines.

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.

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.

Re: question about re installing wineyes
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.

Re: question about re installing wineyes
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.

RE: question about re installing wineyes
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.

Re: really impressed with Jaws2018
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. -Original Message- From: Debby Franson via Talk Sent: Friday, September 8, 2017 7:52 PM To: Window-Eyes Discussion List Cc: Debby Franson Subject: Re: really impressed with Jaws2018 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.
