[Rwp] HotSpotClicker

Yes, it is off topic, especially  for a list of mostly very proud, non-jaws
users.

As the HSC author, I'll try to fill you in, as best I remember.

Hi.
This is a kind of off topic, so please let me know if it's inappropriate for
the list.
I know that a lot of users are using HSC sets to make sample libraries or vi
rtual instruments accessible. However, they must have JAWS installed. For th
ose who don't have JAWS, Autohotkey can be used instead of HSC.
I don't understand how these two solutions work technically. Are these scrip
ts just programmed to move the mouse curser to a specific location, then gen
erate a click event to activate the function under the curser? Or, are they
monitoring other parameters such as window or screen infos, colors, or objec
t handles?

Since I don't have JAWS, I have never tried HSC sets. But reading emails in
this list, the script sets look extremely helpful. That's why I want to know
how the scripts solve the accessibility issues.

I'm working on a new software that can handle the mouse curser, and manage a
ctions that are inaccessible for blind users. Understanding HSC and Autohotk
ey will certainly help me improving my software.
