Here's another shot at the parenthetical workaround in the way you
executed it.

Hi Tom,
Thanks for troubling to create this app.
Unfortunately, my Outlook mail screen has blocked your URL.
I'm wondering if you could convert it to a bitly or tinyurl to shorten it so
that I can get access.
I appreciate it.
Also, here's the subscription page for Dennis Long's alternative email list:

Subject: Here's an app for the Chrome browser.
First, make sure you have the factory settings for Chrome installed. You can
see if they're installed and install them if not by opening the Window-Eyes
control panel, Alt+F File, F factory Settings.
Then when you install the app it will tell you that chrome.set is being
replaced. This is needed to make the app work properly.
Here's what the app does.
1. Speaks alert messages, such as download progress and completion.
When a file is downloaded the message from Chrome is to press Shift+F6 to go to
the download bar.
2. I added Alt+N because it's quicker and the key combination used in Internet
Explorer to go to the notification bar for the same purpose.
All it's doing is inserting Shift+F6. And it's not tied to the notification. So
if you happen to press it without a file downloaded it will just put you up in
the address bar. F6 will put you back in the main window.
3. Suggestions entered in the address bar as you type will be spoken.
For example, if you type yo, YouTube.com will probably be voiced. These are
just pulled out of your history. When you hear the right address just press
enter.
Unfortunately because you come in on the address bar when Chrome opens, and it
doubles as a Google search field, you'll hear everything you type repeated as
you type it if there are no suggestions. Obviously there's no way I can tell
what you're typing or if it's in your history.
Also, the suggestions might not be heard when you first open Chrome. The reason
I replaced the set file is so that I could set keyboard interrupt to program
scope. Then I set it to control and alt only when you're in the address bar and
back to whatever you had it set to when you're not in the address bar. The
problem is I have to monitor for the chrome.set file to be loaded before
grabbing it. And the stars might not line up in time if you open chrome and
start typing immediately. Although you'll probably hear a little snippet of the
suggestion. Then you can use the read line hot key to see what's there.
And finally, I didn't put error reporting in the app because it uses the
GW-Micro App Central server. So if you have any problems you can email me at
tom.kings...@charter.net You can also open the Window-Eyes control panel, Alt+A
Apps, App management, App manager, select the app, press Alt+H to open Help and
Options, then press the About button. There's a Contact author button in there.
And of course you can post any problems here.
Hope this is helpful.
