I suppose pressing up arrow is a good idea, but it isn't what I had in mind.
I mean a true pause feature.
Say for example, shift was assigned for this idea. I was reading a paragraph
and needed to stop for a second. I press shift, we stops, I then press shift
again, and we picks up where I left off.
If we does this with read to end, I'll need to scope it out further.

When I am reading something in Window-Eyes and need to pause, I simply press
the up arrow and that stops the reading, after which I can again use the
ctrl-shift-R command and things start more or less from where they left off. Of
course, I usually back up a couple of lines just to refresh my memory on the
context. Also, there is the discussion on using the read command and control
key in the Tool Tips.

you know, this does sound like it would be very handy, but I don't think
it's possible in window eyes.
I wonder if I could write a script to make this possible; I'll think about
it.

Hi all,
Is there a way to pause window eyes, then hit the hotkey again to have it
continue from where it left off?
I've experienced this with a different screen reader, and it is quite handy.
Lol, sometimes I think sighted people forget that everything we do on the
computer, requires us to listen. So when they interupt us, it is so nice to
quickly pause speech, then just as quickly, pick up where I left off.
If this is not possible with we, it is a great feature request! *smile*
