WinVision

This is another experiment in pileup query.

Suggested words were:

services ; solutions ; access ; internet ; capeclear ; network ; windows ; explorer ; strategy ; program ; users;

I slightly edited the results and erased duplicates.

Conclusions: in this experiment pileups were more informative than the first page results, mainly because it found the manual that teaches users how to work with WinVision (I brought only the opening paragraphs).

This is the first results page.

Right out of the Box For years, WinVision has proven to be a reliable workhorse for fast, extensive and stable speech access to both Windows 3 and Windows 95. Since the first WinVision release for Windows 3 in 1993, many powerful new features and functions have been added as part of regular updates to the software. When WinVision 95 (the first US screen access program for Windows 95) was introduced at the beginning of 1996, all of this power and flexibility became available in the Windows 95 environment ... and the improvements and enhancements continue at an amazing pace. Since its introduction in January, 1996 through January, 1997 WinVision 95 has had 6 upgrades ... at no cost to the end user! The newest release (March, 1997) is called "WinVision 97" not because of its release date, but because of the extensive support that has been added for Microsoft's new Office 97 suite. WinVision 97 provides: Complete support for Microsoft's Active Accessibility protocol Extensive Office 97 support Enhanced Internet Explorer support Automatic Column Reading Key re-mapping so you can define your access commands any way you like!

CHAPTER 2: How WinVision and Windows Interact?
WinVision is a program designed for blind and visually impaired users to provide access to the Windows 3.1 environment with speech and braille. You can hear information as it appears on the screen or run programs like you could using screen access with DOS (Business Vision).
Why do I need to know about them? These terms are part of the Windows vocabulary. Knowing these terms, their definitions and how they relate to the graphical interface will help you learn about Windows. With examples, we will explain how WinVision and Windows work together to use application programs in the Windows environment. We will show you how WinVision supports existing Windows keyboard commands while offering a rich set of options designed to make Windows friendly and accessible.
The Graphical User Interface presents some real challenges to blind and visually impaired users. The following chapters and appendices of this manual address obstacles you may encounter in Windows. As you become more familiar with WinVision, we are confident that you will see how powerful WinVision is.
WinVision finds "where" it is for you, and takes you there. Since it is not the top of your desk, but just a flat screen, WinVision will tell you where things are. You learn what is on the Windows "desk" the same way that you learn what is on the top of your own desk. WinVision will, then, help you pick the things you want to do.

WinVision performed well during testing. We had fewer off-screen model problems with Winvision running than with most other screen readers tested. More thorough documentation, an alternative command structure, and more program configuration files would better complement WinVision's power and stability. Window Bridge is best suited for advanced users. It has a number of efficiency-oriented features, but it is unlikely that beginning users will be successful without training.
