I can help with some of those. Hopefully others will fill in what I don't know, or correct any misinformation below.

Say you have a program with a status line that refreshes when something happens, and you want to hear only that line and nothing else. Move your speakup cursor to where the status line starts, and press speakup_key (spk) with f2. Move the speakup cursor to where the status line ends, and press spk+f2 again. Press numpad-asterisk until speakup says "read window." Now, speakup will read that status line when it refreshes. I can't think of an example program to test this with right now, so that last part about what speakup will do may be incorrect. If there is a laptop keymap equivalent for numpad-asterisk, I don't know it. If you don't have a numeric keypad, you should be able to use your fn key to emulate numpad keys. You'll need to check out whatever support you can find for your laptop to figure out how to do that. > spk key_f4 = enable_win This just turns on or off whether speakup will read the window when read window mode is enabled as far as I know. > spk key_f5 = edit_some This controls what characters will be read when punctuation (punc_level/reading_punc) is set to one. For example, when punctuation is set to one, the period isn't spoken. If you want the period to be spoken in punctuation one, press spk+f5, press the period key, and press space. > spk key_f6 = edit_most Same thing as above, but for punctuation three. > spk key_f7 = edit_delim Don't know. > spk key_f8 = edit_repeat If you have more then three periods in a row, speakup will just speak the period three times. If you press spk+f8, press period, and press space, speakup will now say something like "period x times," where x is how many times the period repeats. > shift spk key_f9 = edit_exnum Don't know.
