A problem that WE and Thunderbird have had for a couple of versions is the first letter of the first word at the beginning of a line being spoken twice when using the right or left arrow. e.g. If the first word at the beginning of the line is water, then moving the cursor across the word using the right or left arrow would read as,
"w w a t e r".

Hi gang, I wrote this to Aaron and then thought maybe others might
benefit from reading it, re: the backspace issue and thunderbird. Just
my experiences with this issue and a few others. Weirdly enough, for me,
the lines below, original message, where it says from and to, don't read
right now in the message area of tb. using tb 17.

Hey Aaron, i've been doing some testing on this issue. You had asked if
another tb profile might help to troubleshoot this, the answer is, yes.
Actually it took two profiles. So it turns out, that if I have my
signature in the reply or forward of a message, it looks like the
backspace key is silent. That said, I can't get it to trigger all the
time, it's spiratic. But it does announce the prior char, sometimes. Now
I seem to be having an issue with we thinking there are duplicate
characters if I use the left and right arrows. Again, this is spiratic,
the word "does" in the sentence above, is telling me I havee two D's,
when in fact, if I use the mouse word next key, there's only one.

And just to make things even stranger, the cursor keys for Program are
not sticking even when saving the settings. Both left and right arrow,
if I try to define them, say "char after."

Would associating the thunderbird_write.set file with the window title
instead of "none" help at all?
