hey all,
as anyone who uses VO on the mac will know not many things are as annoying as
the 1 row added message.
My idea is crude and not ideal but it is the only thing I can think of.
If I was to make a new definition in voice-over dictionary i could put the 1
row added and tell VO to say
Chime or some outher sound would be preferable. However, I cannot recall
just now but when I started using the Mac, I did ask about an alternative to
some speech info and all I can recall is David Griffiths telling me where I
could insert a sound instead. If only I could recall what this was
wow if you could find any info I would be for ever grateful to you.

Hi Henry,
I forgot about the VO+Shift+M context menu for the doc items - my mind

I found this by pure accident. If you ever want to log into Terminal as root,
all you have to do is this:
1. Open up /Applications/Utilities/terminal.app
2. At the log-in prompt, type the following, (without the quotes):

There you go, you’re off and running as “root”. But

Yah, bit if you need to access system directories, it’s a snap when you’ve got
yourself root access on-the-fly. I was struggling with Terminal because I
