The AutoAction system has not been in good repair for quite some time,
which is most of why it's not documented very well.  My latest
approach was to rewrite the bulk of that as a VBScript program instead
of a JAWS script, but some antivirus software flatly refused to run a
.vbs file (I think Norton was the main culprit here), and the
installation of that system was rather complicated anyway.

So in short, I don't recommend using Ctrl+Shift+A nowadays because it
probably won't work right.  So far, I've left it in so I could make
that dialog control a .vbs or other script, rather than having people
hand-edit a .ini file; but nothing's listening to what you put in that
file now.
