Anyway, so-called right clicking (there is really no such thing in OS X, the term stems from broken Windows thinking) is actually invoking the contextual menu. The VO equivalent is Control-Option-Shift-M.
Except that the vo equivalent isn't vo-shift-m regardless of what folks continue to say on this list. If I want to get the contextual menu while in safari, I can control click the mouse on a link which will give me a series of options, including open in new window, or download linked file. This menu does not appear when using a vo-shift-M key combination. Therefore, it is not the same thing. Perhaps this works in *some* apps, but it is not a universal thing, and therefore is *not* a substitute for holding down the control key while physically clicking the mouse. Now, if someone does know a key combination that performs this action, I'd sure like to know what it is, because many many times I've needed such a thing, and couldn't find anyway to perform such an action.
