[nfbcs] secureCRT scripts for jaws 13

[John G. Heim]

Well, it sort of just works. Lots of problems with it though.. Actually,
after looking at the scripts on the Vandyke web site, I see they don't fix
the problems I am having anyway. But if they didwork, it appears they let
you scroll up and down a line at a time with the jaws cursor.  That would be
nice. But the problems I was hoping to fix are:

1. No speech with color schemes other than monochrom.
2. Typed  characters are spoken twice.
3. Echos passwords as you type them in.

I suspect the script I posted for openssh wil also fix the double key echo
with secureCRT.  That problem with the color schemes has been around for
about 100 years. I have been using openssh instead of securecrt for a long
time and I remember it from way back when. I thought you could make it work
by fiddling with the fonts/sizes but no joy so far. 

There is probably some way to fix the problem with it echoing your password
as you type. You can press jaws+2 three times to turn off key echo but it's
a pain to have to do that every time. There is probably some way in a jaws
script to fix it. If the cursor isn't moving as you type, don't do the key
echo. 

If you use a terminal emulator a lot, like I do, you have to type in a lot
of passwords. There's a password for sudo and for loading an sql command
processor.  So I'd rather not have to press jaws+2 three times before each
time I type in a password.

Folks,

You do not need any scripts with securCRT.  It just works.

It looks as if the jaws scripts for secureCRT on the Vandyke web site don't
work with jaws 13. Or more likely, they don't work with Windows 7 because
the instructions for installing them give directory names that do not exist
in Win7. Anybody know if there are newer scripts or more accurate
installation instructions?
