Hi,

capitalised. I 
need to know what they are, and, when jaws readss lines and stuff, it of 
course doesn't tell me, leaving me to have to go through the text letter by 
letter. Is there a way that I can make jaws read to me and somehow alert me 
what letters or words are in caps? Here is an example:
You Must type the command kWfV Emulator.
You can see the w and v, as well as the first letter of emulator are 
capitalised, how can I know that without having to navigate letter by 
letter, can jaws somehow indicate this to me without interupting my reading?"

1. Open Configuration Manager.
2. Press alt s and t to open the text processing dialogue box.
3. Tab once, and in the combo box choose read by line, words, chars, spell.
4. Press enter to activate ok button.
5. Save the configuration file. Remember if you want it set globally you must 
press control shift d before doing any of this so that default.jcf is loaded.
Hope that helps.
