[nfbcs] UltraEdit

[Joe Orozco]

Steve,

I'm afraid I have continued to have no success with UltraEditor.  I
unchecked everything on the View Toolbars except Main.  JFW began reading
one line at a time, but it would only read the current line and then get
stuck on that line.  I went to Tools/Configuration, but all I have found
there is Command Line, Browse and nothing that would indicate a menu.  I
went to the option that just says Configure but found nothing with a cursor
option.  It's frustrating because the program appears to have a lot of what
I'm looking for, though I suppose I may need to look into this NoteTab Pro
you mentioned earlier.  Let me know if you have any other suggestions.

Best,

Joe Orozco

Joe,

I am using UltraEdit 14.10 and also used 14.0 with Window-Eyes and have not
had the problem you are having.  
However, it is my understanding that people with JFW are using it as well.
I can make several suggestions, though.

First, go to the view menu and uncheck all extras on the screen.  These are
like other view menus where you press ENTER and you leave the menu
altogether but the status of the given item has been changed.  Most of these
will be in the views/lists submenu.  I am not saying you can't have any of
these on, only that at this point we don't know which might be causing you
problems.  Second, see if you get different results by pressing INSERT
changing from INSERT mode to overtype mode.  This changes the cursor.  If
JFW tracks the overtype cursor but not the INSERT cursor, you can change the
appearance of the cursor on the Tools/Configuration menu.  This is a very
large menu, and you can type "cursor" into the "navigate" edit box and you
will be taken right there.

Given the problem that someone else mentioned about UltraEdit adding
characters and the problems you are having, you could also check out NoteTab
Pro at 

http://www.notetab.com

because that is another very good alternative.  I switched from that to
UltraEdit for reasons unrelated to HTML, but you might have better luck
there.  When I switched, I didn't like the user interface of NoteTab as well
as UltraEdit's.

I would definitely urge you to find and successfully use at least one
mainstream editor to try just so you get a feel for the features that are
out there and what the accessibility issues are.  Also, certainly contact
Jamal as suggested because he may either not be aware of the problem you had
or he may already have a workaround.  Let me know if you have any luck with
UltraEdit or if you have any questions.

Best regards,

Steve Jacobson
