Hi, Are you sure that's nano you're using? If so, that's one heavily customized version... I'm assuming you're asking about speakup's cursors. The speakup review cursor should automatically be following you. If it's not, hit numpad * until you hear cursoring on. Any future movements you make with the editing cursor should move speakup's cursor along with it. HTH, KJ4UFX PS: On the subject of nano, mine lately has this nasty habit of reading my whole document every time I type something. This is, naturally, extremely annoying. Does anyone know what broke it and how to fix? This seems to be something that's come up in recent versions, but I have no idea what to do for it.
