Hi. Actually, this is working better than I even imagine! For some reason, last night, at first the caps lock key was not working correctly as a command-and-control combination. On my PC keyboard. On the other hand, the applications key, to the right of my PC keyboard's right alt , key, was working fine as the VO modifier. This morning, however, both the cats lock and the application key are both working as the voice over modifier,. So this gives me a single key modifier on both sides of the keyboard, which is wonderful.
