Hi Tom, The touch cursor memics using your finger on a touch screen, only you use the keyboard on your computer to accomplish the same thing. When you turn on the touch cursor, the right arrow is like swiping your finger to the right on a touch screen. You do not need a touch screen on your computer for this to work. Using the touch cursor and your arrow keys, allows you to access many controls that you cannot ever get to with the PC cursor or the JAWS cursor. You can press your arrow keys, and access the buttons on the toolbars of MS word, for example. The touch cursor does not show up in JAWS until version 15. Have a great one.
