Hi Chris, I'm quite familiar with the quick navigation keys and use them all the time. My question was really about those desktop gadgets; I understand that they can get you weather info, sports, news

I must add that I share your frustration. It would be nice if we could visually skim a screen of information, using nothing more than its layout to help us find what we are looking for. That would be

Nononono, what we definitely do not need is more hand holding! Give people a single keystroke, and then it'll be "but my keyboard is different. where do I find this keystroke?"

Well, what functions do we have to help us skim through web pages? I'm thinking of things like the quick keys to jump by heading,, list, etc. that might help. The find command seems appropriate here

Yeah, it doesn't say much for us as a group, does it? *LOL* I'm on several lists containing mostly sighted people, and far more of them - many thousands in fact. And this never ever comes up!

Dave, we obviously need a function to give people electric shocks through their pinky fingers *LOL*

Brandon, sorry but your unsubscribe key command idea is rediculous. I hope you were kidding! *LOL* If that was your intent, great; really funny post! While we're at it, let's add a function that,

hi john: I wonder if this is the breakthrough jonathan mosen mentioned at the beginning of the latest podcast? howard wolcott -------------------------------------------------- Sent: Friday,

Oh, Not special. The Cobra screenreader has it already for 1,5 years. Basicly the screenreader has to include it as a childprogram or submodule, so every screenreader can have it. My humble

I use Research it every day for weather, cnn, bb news and sometimes for Wikipedia and Wiktionary.

hi brandon: since this is a jaws list, of course some people may have problems unsubbing with jaws. but dave is right. james should put a footer at the bottom for unsubbing. that would make a lot

Because Jaws users are the only ones who have the problem. I don't see the same problems with sighted people, users of Window Eyes, NVDA or even the silly screen readers Google and Microsoft try to

Hey John, Do you have a direct url to that info? I'd like to check it out. Thanks, Tom

Again Brandon, I fail to see your logic: Why would FS care at all that JAWS users are not capable of unsubscribing from a list that FS has nothing to do with? Take a deep breath, and think about

John, Where on the FS site is the demonstration? Sounds like it may be on-screen OCR that will enable the user to work with programs that have graphical text on buttons and other controls. I think

Can you say bloated?

I'm totally serious, at least that's what the JAWS site says. It works with graphical text and they used a setup file to demonstrate it. I'm trying to find out more, but there isn't much info about it

Hi, Are you pulling my leg?JAWS 13 will have OCR function? Really? How extensive will this functionality be, and what's to become of Open Book, then? Tom

Hi, Ah yes, I forgot about good old tell-me, though it, too has its occasional quirks. For a while there I would call in for a baseball score and it would say that the score for a game was 0 to 0
