I too touch type, I guess my hand span is not accomodating enough to do it easily. I have to take My hand off of home row in order to accomplish the task and then use my pinky for the shift key so that I can reach v with my forefinger.
In another message, you ask Janina why not use the keys that people are used
to and I don't object to the keys, but would posit that we could use any
keys we wanted to use since we are not using any of the windows screen
readers and since we are talking mostly braille here so if we think braille,
we can perhaps come up with a sequence that would benefit braille users. In
other words, we are not tied to windows convention here.

David,
I have no problems my self pressing left shift and v but maybe that's
because I can touch type? Or is it because you have a physical handicap. I
believe in the next version of oralux sticky keys are being worked on.
Thanks,
Nigel,

This is fine although it feels like jaws for windows with ie. I have one question though, left shift is tough to press with v so could we not use either shift key?

I had an idea to increase the brail mode functionality of the links web browser and would like some feed back please.
Pressing the h key will take you to the next heading. Pressing the v key will take you to the next visited link. Pressing the u key will take you to the next unvisited link. Pressing the n key will take you to the next block of 25 characters or more that is not a link.
The left shift key will work with ALL the above keys to move to the previous element.
Pressing the enter key will toggle forms mode on and off when in a form field to allow you to enter text.
Thanks in advance, Nigel,
