Thanks, Gregg. Glad to hear this, and I'll pass your compliments along to Ed. Now, does anyone know how we get Speakup to automagically get out of the way in the GUI console? I'm hearing rumors that there's a stragith forward, simple code patch way to do that. Yes, we can kill Speakup with Print Screen and dismiss the screen snapshot, but that's a hokey workaround, not a real solution, of course.
