type that key twice in a row to have it typed in the chat window here is a section from the skype scripts page that might help explain what is going on.
This script version also contains an experimental interface which I will call the "JAWS command system" or just the "command system." This interface is not like the normal one-key-per-command interface of modern JAWS scripts, though its structure may be familiar to PAC Mate users and resembles the menu system of modern Windows applications. The commands you all know still remain; this is an additional method of doing some things. The rest of this section describes the new interface in some detail, for anyone who wants to try it. The author is quickly coming to prefer it over the original commands, but that's just me. The new interface consists of sequences of keys that run scripts instead of just single commands that do so. The left square bracket key ([) is a sort of prefix key, after which you can hit other keys to do other things. Hitting the left bracket key twice just types one, in case you need to do that. I picked that key because it's rarely used in Skype. In fact, the main motivation for writing this interface was the problem of running out of keys to use for Skype script commands. This way, we can have as many commands as we want and never need more than one key that could interfere with the application. Hitting a left bracket will say "Skype" to let you know you've entered the JAWS command system for Skype. The keys you can currently hit after a left bracket are [ Just type a single left bracket and return to Skype. In other words, you can get a plain left bracket just by hitting it twice. C Chat commands. N Notification commands. T Tab commands. After going to Chat commands or Tab commands, the following keys can be used: 1-0 Switch to specific chat windows or tabs and exit the command system. Shift+1-Shift+0 Say the names of specific chat windows or tabs without switching to them and without exiting the command system. You can use this feature to review chat or tab names and then just press an unshifted number to switch to the one you want. l List all available chat windows or tabs and exit the command system. Shift+l List all available chat windows or tabs but do not exit the command system. This is a fast way to read the chat or tab names before switching to one, which you can then do just by pressing its number. Ctrl+l Bring up a JAWS list of chat windows or tabs from which you can select one and press Enter to switch to it. The command system exits. Some people prefer the JAWS list because of the ability to jump to chats or tabs by typing initial letters. Esc or any key without another function Exit the command system without doing anything else. After going to Notification Commands, plain numbers will read up to the last ten received notifications. This feature is not available anywhere else in the scripts because I sort of ran out of safe keystrokes to use for it. In Notification commands, the command system is not exited by numbers, so you can read at your leisure until done. Press Escape or any other key without another function to exit the command system after reviewing notifications. Note that any key that exits the command system also makes a short sound to let you know you are back in Skype itself. To make this possible across all supported JAWS versions, I had to include the sound file played by the scripts. There are actually two sounds included, though at this time, only one is used. The sound files are currently placed in the same folder as the scripts, though they more properly belong in the Sounds folder under your JAWS user settings folder in JAWS 6 and up, and in the normal settings\enu directory under JAWS 4 and 5. (I put the sound files with the scripts for now to avoid problems with the installer we currently use.) If you don't want the sound to play, it is sufficient to delete SkypeCommandExit.wav. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Irene Rana" <[email protected]> To: <skypeenglish at emissives.com> Sent: Wednesday, May 28, 2008 12:22 PM Subject: [Skypeenglish] Problems with Chatting and Jaws Hi Friends!
