[gui-talk] A news line question:

Dave,

What do you mean by this. You mean an article comes to you split into 
several file attachments, and you have to open all of them at the same time 
to get them to comprise one article? I can't imagine what that would be 
like. I never open two attachments at once, normally. Even if I did, like 
two Word attachments, they'd simply open as two different documents, each in 
its own window. I'm confused about this.

And then you're saying that a Daisy reader of some sort is best, but you can 
read them in other ways? You mean I could read such an article using just 
Jaws, same as I do with a New York Times article, which I have no complaint 
about, but if I had a daisy thing, then it would be better? You mean I'd 
have all those navigational tricks you can do with Daisy? I don't have a 
Daisy playback,  unit or program, so I'm just talking from what I think I 
understand.

Thanks.

All of the files make up a DAISY book.  For best reading you need a
player, such as the Victor Reader Stream, or DAISY playback software.
