-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Debee, You have two problems: one is to find the right editor, the other is your speakup version. I have found that an editor called "nano" works best for me. Nano is an improved pico with regular expression support and a number of other nice stuff. By definition, "nano" is like "pico" only more so. That's a pun. Nano does not come with Slackware, but ought to. It is a snap to install it. I could send you a copy if that would save you a hunt. I have made nano my "alternate editor" in Pine. I am not certain when the cursor tracking breakthrough came with speakup versions, certainly not before 1.5. You may want to upgrade your speakup version and/or kernel, which is REALLY getting your feet wet! <smile> Chuck - -- The Moon is Waning Crescent (37% of Full) My home page is now at http://www.mhcable.com/~chuckh -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.2.4 (GNU/Linux) iQCVAwUBQKJbPjVdG8M9x9tGAQJnIQP9Hr6RDDPV0ZXqq+b0WgNzxw8VQyhV+mwq bN6qLhWWkfElAdyGO/rAgOpBidrBzRVPKuLN9zRknzgBLuMyXFIkoCSfWnMh19ct ng3Wt1WSqueGqTPMwCf0nJ9lSB8m1928XPwAZCVLmqZmJAajcPeYQqnca9jDTDM8 jHW/9AQBkTI= =ewOA -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
