It's possible to configure Growl to read Adium's messages. If you're hearing the little chiming alert sound that says messages from your various contacts are coming in, then it's working, but you're not telling VO to announce the right part of the screen. There are a couple of things you can do to make it not so tedious, though I admit, it's often not quite as seamless as the old AOL IM client and such used to be: •1) In Adium's Preferences, under "events," you can configure growl to speak incoming messages, alerts, status changes, etc. This is useful but ... abstract. :) Find me on Skype or somehow if I may assist.
•2) Once you've interacted with the "unknown," frame, which is where all the messages appear, you can press VO Shift F3 to turn off cursor tracking. Now, provided you don't leave that window, simply pressing VO right-arrow once will make VO say the message you just got. Not as bad as all that, considering that even with the older system, you had to shift-tab, up and down arrow, etc. Again, find me if I can help. • Mark BurningHawk Baxter • AIM, Skype and Twitter: BurningHawk1969 • MSN: burninghawk1...@hotmail.com • My home page: • http://MarkBurningHawk.net/ -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "MacVisionaries" group.
