Kevin,
What if you added a dialog box with checkboxes for the various options? Then
after they pressed OK on the box, you would just need to check the state of
the checkboxes and apply the necessary changes.
You could link to this dialog box from the script menus.

Hi Steven:
I think the help dialog will only allow you to change the hotkeys,
rather than to activate them. I want to activate the hotkeys and stay
in the menu, if that is possible.
For example, when I want to turn Say Attributes On, I want to go into
that item in the Proofreading Submenu and press Enter rather than
pressing the hotkey shift-alt-a. I want to add this feature for those
people who can't, or do not wish to, remember hotkeys.

Kevin,
Why not link to your script's help from the menu and use the hotkey
manager in the standard help dialog? What you propose with the menus is
highly unusual.
Regards,
Steve

Hi:
I have put a revised version of my Proofreading script on Sendspace
and a link to download it has been sent to the list.
I have put all the hotkeys except for shift-alt-h for the list of
hotkeys and shift-alt-s to save the settings, in a submenu in the
Script Menus pulldown menu in the Window-eyes control panel.
As you will see, if you press Enter on any of the items in the
Proofreading submenu, save for Script Help, you are taken out of the
submenu and left in the Window-eyes Control Panel.
I think it would be better if it stayed in the Proofreading submenu,
but I don't know how to accomplish this. I would welcome any
suggestions on how to do this or any other suggestions on what I could
do to improve this script.
Thank you very much in advance.
