Linda:
Do you use or have the alt stop option for Screen Reader? It
lets you use the alt, or control, or shift, or whatever keys to shut
up the voice. If you don't have it let me know and I"ll send you
the materials to get it working--its only about 4 lines of PAL code
that you include in your srd,kpj file. Basically you just insert
a $include statement with the extra file name in the core.kpd file
and recompile the core/etc. files and off you go. It works really
well.
You can use this option to do other things as well.

Al, no I didn't know there was any other way to stop speech with
Screen
Reader than to use the stop speech key on the keypad. Remember,
I'm just a user, and a beginner at that. If you can share any
Screen Reader tips I'd appreciate it, and I promise not to put
your keypad in either my dishwasher or kitchen sink. Do you use
Screen Reader regularly? Do you receive the newsletter that IBM
sends out quarterly? Thanks.
Linda

Hi Linda:
Yes, yes, and yes. I use Screen Reader regularly, yes I get
the News Letter. And yes--whatever was that last one? Anyway, here
is the scoop, in one of the News letters ther AltStop coding is given,
you put a include statement in your Core.Kpd and then recompile the
standard system setup(s) so that they all use it. The Alt key can
then be used as the shutup key. If you want, I could compile one
here if you give me enought info and you could either dnload it or,
have somebody do it their if you don't feel up to the thing. Its
really not very hard, but can make a big mess if done wrong.
Anyway, I could also send you the stuff on disk if you sent me
some sort of backup of your srd system files and the kbd(s) and kbj(s)
so I could make sure yours worked. I am using Screen Reader right
now as a matter of fact. OK, see ya later.
