Hi Gang, I just wanted to throw in my two cents worth about Speakup and the cursor. It is an important feature to me--but cursoring works fine in pico and nano and presumably in other editors as well. If you have the latest CVS version of Speakup all you need do is press the asterisk key on the numeric keypad and you'll hear the message "cursoring on". Its a toggle so when you are finished editing or whatever, just press the asterisk key again and it'll turn cursoring off. Once in a while when you are arrowing to the right you'll hear the whole line, but this is fairly infrequent. Kirk I think you did a fine job with cursoring! Jim WB0TFK
