this is fine until you want to use your screenreader away from the internet or indeed your internet connection is down and you need to write an important letter but still, SAtoGo is still easily the most competent of the free offerings I would say.

Hi, now that SATOGO is now free, why not try that? Or am I missing something?Just press windows key and the R key, enter and type in www.satogo.com and follow the prompts.

In those days their webpage had lots of useful notesyou could download. Don't know if it still has because I haven't looked forages...Anyway I've copied below an extract from a helpfile I got back then: hope ithelps, but I suspect some keystrokes might conflict with JAWS keys, which could lie at the root of your difficulty. See if this helps. Mouse left click = NKP 5 Mouse right click = NKP minus Mouse pointer up and read = NKP 8 Mouse pointer down and read = NKP 2 Mouse pointer left and read = NKP 4 Mouse pointer right and read = NKP 6 Mouse pointer, move by pixel = NKP star Mouse pointer, move by object = SHIFT + Caps Lock + NKP star----- Original Message ----- From: "Lyn & Twinny" <keanemaniac@xxxxxxxxx>To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Sunday, February 03, 2008 5:06 AM Subject: [access-uk] feedback on screen readers wantedHi list, I currently use jaws for windows as my primary screen reader. However, Iwould like to get feedback on any of the free ones out there such as NVDA,thunder and any other screen reading software that could be of use to us. I was mainly wondering if there is an equivalent to the mouse cursor or Jaws cursor but so far have not been able to find this when using NVDA or thunder. Any information would be greatly apreciated. Thanks a lot. Lyn & Twinny. ******** skype& aim = keanemaniac email & msn = keanemaniac@xxxxxxxxx ******** "(...)
