hi:
I joined this list for jaws info, n ot apple mac info.
if you use the mac, then fine but then join a mac list.
if you use the mac, then fine but if you still use jaws, thenthere must
still be issues with the mac for you to be still using jaws.

ok, here is some key strokes that will work on any mac to get VoiceOver
working.
If on a iMac or mac pro,
Just do command key + f5 to turn on.
If using a bookPro,
Just do a fn key + command key + f5.
If you do a control + option key +k, turn on keyboard mode like insert +1
for jaws.
If you do a control +option + h, turns on help menu for voiceOver
commands.
Now for some keyboard key location. You can use any keyboard. Starting
from left bottom, control key, windows/option key, alt/command key.
That should get you up and going to have a look around.

Thanks for the information. I know some folks who use the Mac but haven't
tried it.
I am visiting the USA (tampa) for the Thanksgiving and Christmas holidays
and hope to at least have a go at using it. Started with JAWS in 2000 and
it has worked for me since then.

No. The bad news is that there is no jaws for mac. The good news is that
any recent version of the mac operating system already comes with the
screenreader for mac tied into the operating system. This native Mac
Screenreader is Called Voiceover and has becomeq quite good. Google for
"Voiceover" and you should find plenty of information for you and your
colleague. Also, I am sure that there is a voiceover email support group
out there but I do not know subscriptioninformation. Again I refer you to
our friend Google.

Please do not crucify me via cyberspace but a colleague called me a
couple of minutes to ask whether Freedom Scientific has a JFW program
that will work on the Mac. Hope to hear from you soon.
