OK, for those of you who are against scripts, I want everybody to think
of
one thing. Most of you don't use CakeWalk, but if you ever did, and you
used the Dancing Dots scripts for Cakewalk, called CakeTalking, you
would
understand just how powerful the JFW scripting language is. Yes, it is
hard
for the average user to learn, but I would challenge any other screen
reading program, including Windoweyes, to give you the level of access
CakeTalking gives you to cakeWalk 9. I'm telling you all now, that sold
it
for me. And I respect WindowEyes as a screen reader, even though i don't
own it. I am not against any screen reader, they all have their
strengths
and weaknesses, but don't downplay the JFW script language, it really
does
things that most other screen readers can never hope to do easily or at
all.
