I was going to ask a related question. Does jaws have a built-in
keyboard help system.  something you could toggle on and it would say
the key like semi colon or where you could pres insert+semi colon on a
laptop, and jaws would say
insert+semi colon, route jaws to pc cursor for example?

"To begin reading with JAWS, put your middle three fingers on the
numeric keypad, with your middle finger on the number 5, the one with
the raised bump. Your pointer finger should be resting on the left arrow
(NUM PAD 4) and your ring finger on the right arrow (NUM PAD 6). This is
what I call the Home Row

for your fingers on the Number Pad."



Do any of you know of a tutorial or any other form of instruction like
this to orient a new user to the rest of the keyboard, the function
keys, the alphabet or typing keys, ETC ETC ? Standardization seems to be
the problem such as the difference between a windows 102 and a windows
107 keyboard. As ever I am using Jaws 6.0 with Win XP home. Your
information will be immensely appreciated.
