Re: exporting jaws settings
Annabelle Susan Morison
The way I do it is, first, I create a folder in "My Documents" and call it
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
something like "JAWS Settings". Next, I go into the "Explore My Settings" section of JAWS from the programs menu, then I copy everything from that folder onto the clipboard. Finally, I go into my new folder "JAWS Settings" which I've created in "My Documents", and I paste the contents of the clipboard into that folder. You can name your folder whatever is easy for you to remember, and save it where you can easily find it.

Re: google translator?
Michal Nowicki <mnowicki4@...>
I just tried out Google Translate with JAWS, and I think I figured out how
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
to use it. The trick to using the site is that there are two sets of buttons. Moving through the page from top to bottom, the first set is for the source language, while the second is for the target language; I figured this out through trial and error. Once you get a hang of this, the rest is straightforward. In the text box, you can type or copy and paste a string of text or the URL of a website you want to translate. The option to translate an entire document also seems to work, though I haven't gone through all the steps. When you activate the link, you are given the option to upload a file in the same manner you would if you were attaching a document to an online form. Finally, whether you use Google Translate or another program, please keep in mind that no machine translator is as accurate as a human translator because machines can't analyze the context in which words are used; consequently, they often use words incorrectly.

Re: limit to dictionary
Paul Martz <skewmatrix@...>
2000 seems like a very unlikely limit. It's not a computer number. 2048 would be more believable.

Yet it still baffles me why there would be a limit at all, as JAWS should simply allocate more RAM to hold more entries. -Paul

2000 entries shared between the user and shared file. Even when I deleted some of the non-English default entries and added new English entries it has always been right at 2000 entries that the dictionary manager crashes.

Soronel, when you reached the limit, did Jaws start to lag a bit in responding to typing, and did either jdf become corrupted?

do you know if the limit also includes entries concerning other languages in either the default and application dictionaries? do you know how much space a full jdf takes up on the HD?

Re: limit to dictionary
Soronel Haetir
Jaws is limited to 2000 entries per dictionary, shared between the
toggle quoted messageShow quoted text
user and shared configuration files. Jaws has two dictionaries active at any given time (the default and program specific dictionary, each of which loads user and shared files), each of the default and program dictionaries can have up to 2000 entries so there is a limit of 4000 entries total. And I know this because it is a limit I have actually reached.
