Ted,
You'll only need to do insert+0 once to start the script manager. Instead use
Insert +f2 and then arrow to script manager. Then follow the other steps.
But frankly the Insert+spacebar +the letter "S" does it just fine, if you have
JAWS 11.

Understood. Once in a blue moon, a sighted person needs access, and doesn't
want to mess with speech, and this sounds like just the ticket. The only thing
that's freaking me out is that Ins-0 combo. I'm already doing finger exercises
to loosen up.

Dave and Ted,
Just to prevent you from misunderstanding, this is just muting speech. It is
not passing keys through. In other words, if an application you are using is
not usable because Jaws catches the keypresses before they get to the
application. Keep this one in mind for later reference. It's a tricky thing! :-)

Very nice! Just assigned it to Ctrl+Shift+grave (Ctrl+grave didn't work for
me) and it even says "speech off" and "speech on".
So simple and elegant. Makes my subscription fee to this list worth every
dime I've paid.

Dave,
Yes. It is a toggle.

Rob,
Excellent! Will the same keystroke you've assigned also unmute? In other
words, is the script a toggle?

I dont know if this has been answered or not, so here is my solution.
1 press insert+0
2 press ctrl+shift+D to open default scripts
3 press ctrl+L to open list of scripts
4 type the letters M U to get to mute synthesizer and enter on it
5 press ctrl+D
tab to atach to key and check it if its not already checked.
tab down to where it asks you to enter a hotkey, and press the hot key of
your choice.
I use ctrl+grov
grov its located above the tab key and to the left of the 1.
6 tab to OK press enter
7 save the settings with ctrl+S
8 press alt+F4 to exit.
I hope this helps you!
Thanks,
Rob
