Hi Dave: The cursor on key is speakups experimental cursor tracking and announcement mode. It only works in some editors and in others it sort of works sometimes. You have to be careful to turn it off when you leave the editor because things like bash don't work very well with it. It should be in the defaultKeyAssignments. If it isn't I'll fix that in cvs. Kirk -- Kirk Reiser The Computer Braille Facility e-mail: kirk at braille.uwo.ca University of Western Ontario phone: (519) 661-3061
