Joel,

To learn all about FS Reader, simply launch the JAWS Help menu, arrow down once to Training and hit Enter. The first item should be "FS Reader Getting Started". Hit enter to bring up the tree view of topics. Hit Enter on the first topic and the Daisy book explaining FS Reader will begin playing. To navigate in an FS Daisy book, press Control-P to play/pause, Control-S to stop, Control-. to advance forward 5 seconds and Control-, to go back 5 seconds. Hope this is enough to get you started.

James,

I haven't yet taught myself how to use FS Reader, and don't in fact have any
experience with Daisy format in any context. Total Daisy newbie. I thought
this material might make a good learning project for me.

My questions:

1. I understand the instructions for downloading this notice about new Jaws
features, although I have no idea where it installs to. Into which folder
does the stuff go? What's the file extension?

2. How do you launch FS Reader? Simply by pressing Enter on the filename? Or is there something else you have to do, like find the program somewhere in a
folder and launch it?

3. However you start it up, how do I learn to use FS Reader? Is it pretty
intuitive, once it launches? I mean with menus and such to explore? Or must
I go somewhere either on the FS site or to a file in some Jaws folder
already on my computer to study how to use FS Reader?

Thanks very much. Hope my questions are clear.
