Maybe many of you will not be aware of this, but Jaws and NVDA actually have some quick-keys for setting key echo. If memory serves me right, try hitting Insert-2, the 2 on your main keyboard, and the key echo should change to "word", which will be the answer to one of the initial queries.
Just thought to let you all know. And, first you are at it, it doesn't hurt to test what other features will be attached to the Inser-key, along with the number row on your keyboard. One good news, which you all will love to be reminded, is that Jaws is similar to WinEyes, in that Inser-1, will open the keyboard help mode. Once activated, go ahead and press any key-combination your brain could ever come up with. It won't change anything in your screen reader, but sure will give you a good feeling of some of the most daily used features. Anyone called for some hands-on tutoring? Can't be anything more hands-on, and it will be totally free of charge. Smiles. A good place to start out. Still, if anyone please could inform if there is a quick set of mouse-moving keystrokes, I am sure people here would love to learn.
