In a previous post I mentioned one of the aspects of Window-Eyes that sets it apart from the other text to speech programs is the ability to use the mouse pointer from the keyboard. Other programs have taken what appears to be a carry over from the MS DOS days and tried to duplicate that review cursor function in a Windows environment.
Granted I suspect that the majority of people who use text to speech software, may be 90 percent, only use a word processing application, a web browser, an email client, and may be a spread sheet package. Heck at home that is all I use. Here at work there is software I need to run that doesn't have the ability to work with only keyboard commands. This is where the Window-Eyes mouse hotkeys shine. Although I don't need them every day, when I do need to use them I am grateful. Thankfully GW Micro didn't implement features democratically. If they did that would have created some challenges and also would have hindered my ability to do everything for which I am compensated.
