Dot Fix 1.4.2

  by Munawar Bijani This app is rated 1 out of 5 stars with 1 ratings. XML Feed for Dot Fix 1.4.2

If you are used to Eloquence saying "dot dot dot" when it encounters an ellipsis, this app will come in handy to you. This app stops Eloquence from treating ellipses as commas, and instead the synthesizer will say "dot dot dot." There is also an option to prevent Window-Eyes from saying "apostrophe" if Miscellaneous Punctuation is turned on. This feature is useful if you wish to have all Miscellaneous Punctuation on but do not want Window-Eyes to say something like "don apostrophe t" instead of "don't."

  • Added ability to toggle treatment of ellipses. This option is on by default and can be turned off from the Options dialog.
  • Corrected an issue where more than two words connected by a period (.) would not be processed. Window-Eyes would say something like Multiple dot Words. Joined instead of Multiple dot Words dot Joined.
  • Corrected an issue where words connected with a period (.) and separated by a non-alphanumeric character would not be processed. I.E.: (this).Fragment.

10/15/2011 9:20:57 AMThe search-and-replace functions for apostrophes have been rewritten to take advantage of regular expressions instead of using manual look-aheads. This corrected an issue which existed in version 1.3.1 where in some cases, apostrophe characters would not be suppressed.

  • The fixes mentioned in 1.1 are NOW INCLUDED. (I wasn't aware that I had included the 1.0 file of the app instead of the update in the package!) The options menu along with apostrophe fixes will now work.

  • Enhanced triple dot treatment. Previously, if "..." appeared in the middle of a word viz. "like...this," Window-Eyes would say, "like, dot this." Now, it will also filter this case and say "dot dot dot."
  • Added feature to filter Apostrophe characters.
  • Added entry in Window-Eyes App Menu. Older versions of Window-Eyes will still use the "Help And Options" button.

It is very nice the way this app supresses apostrophes; it only does it in words which are contractions, allowing you to otherwise hear the apostrophe character if it appears in some unusual context.
