              Already tried those... by ShadowSystems 2011-09-03 14:36:48
If I encase any part of the Path statement in quotes, it wants me to enclose the *entire* Path in quotes, else it barfs.
If I enclose the entire Path in quotes, then it wants it to be proper Case.
Once I get the quotes & case right, it finds something else to complain about.
And so on, and so on, and so on...
But if I keep it to 8.3, it "merely" complains about Case.

I can't use the Tab key inside the terminal window, because Jaws uses it to navigate, and refuses to let other programs use it, too.
It's a *massive* pain in the a3.

Oh, and the "shift + right-click" thing?
Can't do it.
I have to use the arrow keys to navigate to a file in the Windows File Explorer.
Once there, I use the Windows key to "right click" open the menu.
Shift+Win is another one of those "reserved for Jaws" things, and doesn't open anything in the WFE, but causes Jaws to do something else instead.

Fun, no?
*Sigh*
It's enough to make me hunt down Bill Gates, tear off his head, and use it as a bludgeoning device for the rest of Microsoft...
*cough*
