hmmmm, I've used many types of adaptive technologies even going back to the original outspoken fcor the mac and some odd ones like vert plus for my dos box 386. and I'm telling you, being that something is not read to me automatically, does slow me down, believe me, I would like the convenients, but its not vital.

for alot of those windows l*users* it would seem that they get kind of iffy, of nothing gets read to them automatically. now, its kind of a second nature to review the last couple of lines when using terminal and editing is a breeze with nano.

I suppose I should have explained that there are plenty of commands you can run without installing anything further; because I have run linux and wanted to install more I skipped that basic fact. Having already been familiar with linux I had some ideas what I could run with the terminal so I haven't specifically done reading on the Mac's Unix system. Maybe somebody onlist can point you to some documentation. a lot of people don't know anything about the underlying Unix system when they start with the Mac; in fact, I think quite a few never do anything with it; glad you've discovered it. The way voiceover works with terminal isn't optimal but now that I'm used to it, it isn't usually a hindrance.
