How about alt, since GMA uses alt to silence speech, and as far as I know mota doesn't use alt for anything. I don't like shift because ctrl+shift+arrows might silence ongoing speech that one had intended to listen to while on the move. Sent with Thunderbird 3.1.10 portable. On 8/19/2011 1:25

Hi Tom, Hmmm, the issue with assigning silence to shift for me would be that it'd probably make it tricky to get information whilst running, and that's kinda the main reason I asked about the silence function. Alt would be perfect, but it sounds like the API is pretty determined to hold onto

Hi Bryan, No, you could still use shift to run and for the running jump. The difference between shift and control is there are no speech commands asigned to shift. Therefore the speech silence function would not be interrupting a status message. For example, with the control key we have speak
