I don't know what is "read current line" ? i suppose perrrrhaps it's a
speakup command which permit to read the line pinted by the cursor ?
In fact once the patch is applied, you should be able to browse the
bookmarks list moving the cursor with up and down arrow and you should
be able to access the vuttons located in the bottom of the dialog box
using the left and right arrow keys.
without the patch, it was not possible to position the cursor in the
bookmarks list.

I hope now it's clear enough but perhaps not because my english is bad !
Don't hesitate to ask precisions again if it's not clear enough.
