Fyi, things like this are often called "earcons". It might help you in your searching to know that. I read your message about the name, and the dictionary definitions. I also think that the word Phone

Before I comment on this (below), I just want to thank you, Joseph, for writing it up formally, even though you disagree with it. Your considered prospective and administrative style are, as always, v

Which is a really nice and compact way of saying what I was trying to say in my last message. :) Luke

But now we're creating the opposite problem, wherein the code passes Python 3 compatibility, so we ignore the fact that the manifest declares it incompatible. That makes for non-passable add-ons, that

I'm sorry, you're right. I thought I had removed it on this version of NVDA, but it was on one of my other portable installations. My fault. Luke

DaVid There is a bit of a UX issue here. If you turn on Instant Character Descriptions, then read a character when Delayed Character Descriptions is already on, the description will be spoken twice. T

No offense intended, but why are you telling us that a known to be unstable add-on is unstable? Perhaps I am missing something, but what result were you hoping for here? It is unstable, and has been r

Why not?

I must have missed something about a global variable not being set. Luke

I am one of those people who think that 2019.2 (or 2019.2.1) will probably be around for quite a while, so if this can be fixed, it should be. I hate to be so general about it, but would putting a try

My review and comments. License: fail In the source file and readme you have GPL 3 listed, but the license file you provide in the repo is for GPL 2. Since GPL 2 anticipates GPL 3 this is permitted, b

Thanks for this Noelia. Sadly, in Python 2 versions of NVDA, I'm getting the same thing as James. The best I can get is kwargs[0], which equals 2. That is in betas. In alpha, it works exactly as you s

All true, but the identical values are often also used when constructing UI elements to manipulate those configuration parameters. And in the case of pre-existing NVDA core configuration options, you

Thanks James. Thoughts on the longer term viability of using your construction (private methods), vs. my original (I thought bad) idea, using regular expressions to reverse engineer the information? I
