Press F7. Also, did you get the menu strip to appear?
Take care,
Russ

When I installed Jart only the File menu worked. Press Alt-V and the View
menu will appear. Arrow-down and check Main Menu. This will make the menu
accessible with the Alt key.
Hope this helps,
Russ

How do you work the spell check? And How do I learn about the alt key
menus?

Thanks Gerald for the information. I found that all the items we would
typically want, including spellcheck, are also on those nice regular
alt key
menus. There is also a very cool clipboard memory buffer under the Tools
menu. I highly recommend going through all the available menu items,
there
are great features there.

Jarte uses the same classic menu structure as Wordpad, upon which it is
based. You just press the Alt key to launch the menus, just as you would
with any other program. To invoke the spell checker, just press F7.

Tim you got me excited about using the Jart word processor. But How do
I get
to the menus? How do I do spell check. Your help will be much
appreciated.

Hi Andy,
I owe you a great and hardy "Thank you" for telling us about Jarte!
It is
just what I always wanted, a nice easy word processor that is fully
compatible with JAWS. It was easy to download and install. Folks
will find
it to have a very familiar feel, and it is easy to explore the menus and
find all the features, everything I want, a few nice extras, but not
as much
of the wild stuff the Microsoft Word program has. It also has a nice
regular old menu system.
So for those who did not notice his post, please consider Jarte. I can
already tell that I will use it a lot, perhaps as my default word
processor.
It is certainly the solution for those who have only WordPad.
A post-installation note. When you first launch the program for the
purpose
of real work, watch for the following. When you first go to open your
file
list, the old familiar control + o key, you need to set the file
type. By
default, it is set to RTF only, meaning that when you tab to the file
list,
you will see only the folders, and only those files that are in RTF
format.
Instead, tab to the file type field, and Arrow down to the format you
want
to see in the file list, or arrow down to the bottom, about 5 times,
to the
all-format view. Whatever format option you choose, just press enter.
Then, just do the shift tab a couple of times and there is the list of
all
folders, and depending upon your file type selection discussed above,
your
list of files. If you do not do this step, you will see only the list of
folders, if any, and only RTF files, if any, in the folder. I assume
there
is a way to set the default file type, but I have not learned that
much yet,
and for beginners of Jarte, it is probably best to just check the file
type
box each time, or you will be greatly confused wondering where your files
and folders are!
I put in below the link to the Jarte web page that contains the
description
of features. On that same page is also the download link. The
installation
file you download is small, less than 4 mb. Installation was completely
perfect and easy, both for accessibility and for clarity.
The link is below, just past my name. Thanks again Andy!

I agree, and that's why I have Jarte.

Thanks, Dave, but I already know this. However, I don't have any
version of
Word and I don't intend to purchase it just to be able to read files from
people who refuse to publish documents in more universally accessible
formats.
