DK> Actually the best screen reader is, VOCAL - EYES from GW MICRO.

It is a good one, but I can't say it is the best.  Really I can't
say which one is the best, since they each have their advantages.

DK> It can be made to work with almost any program, because it has keyboard 
DK> mapping.

So does jaws.

DK> You can use set files, and put them in batchfiles, and then when you load a 
DK> new program, or switch between programs, the screen reader, VOCAL - EYES, 
DK> will configure to work with that program.

So can jaws.

DK> Also, the Vocal - Eyes program will work with colors as well as light bars, 
DK> and a whole lot more.

Again so will jaws.

DK> Again the best screen reader is VOCAL - EYES from GW MICRO.

Again that is a matter of opinion.  AS I said before, I won't say
which one is the best.  Just like foods, I am sure that we like
different foods.  To say what I like is better, would be wrong.

DK> Also, the program has some other neat features like;  HYPERACTIVE WINDOWS, 
DK> AND SILENT WINDOWS, OR SPEAK WINDOWS as WELL AS NEWTRAL WINDOWS.
DK> Boy, that is some powerfull stuff.
DK> Because i am now using a screen reader like VOCAL-EYES, i now have a

DK> that.

I think that is great.  Have you tried jaws.  If you wish to
compare them you should try both of them.  I have tried both, and
that is why I can say that both are good.  It just so happens that
I like jaws better at this time.  That doesn't mean that I
couldn't  change my mind in the future.
