Hi Mario,

I only have Jaws 2018 and thanks to your info, I found them in: "C:\ProgramData\Freedom Scientific\JAWS\2018\SETTINGS\enu\SOUNDS" I don't know that I'll ever do anything with this, but it is fun to know about. Someone at Freedom Scientific must have been a Victor Borge fan. For those who do not know that name, he was an excellent pianist, but also a very funny comedian who had a great routine about phonetic punctuation. You can check it out on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a7BXPKyikB0 Thanks, Richard

Quite interesting. You hit add, then tab over to the list of sounds. I'm curious, where do those sound files reside? Are they part of the Windows sounds, or unique to Jaws?

I am a developer and often times I have to listen to tongue twisters of punctuation marks, like "left bracket right brace left paren ..." I wish to replace all these parens and brackets with sounds. Is there a way to do so in Jaws? Thanks Tony |
