Alt accent key? I don't know what that is. Would you mind finding it on th4e Insert 4 list of characters and showing me? Alt accent? I'm not trying to be funny. I can recognize French, I can read and write Spanish, and I am familiar with a lot of the diacritical marks of German. But I never saw, during my sighted reading life, anything printed in English, whether published in the U.S. or in England (or elsewhere where British English is spoken) that had any diacritical marks of any sort, not in English words, let alone anything that went by the name "alt accewnt." Thanks for showing me this character.

We're not talking the Cyrillic, Greek or Arabic alphabet, so what's the difference?

You can set it to what ever outputs you have installed. Here I can not set it to anything because I only have us English installed so I will always be told no change.

Alt plus shift toggles a setting which makes Jaws say alternatively, English Canada then English United states. Remember some people were talking about Jaws starting to announce English United States? I accidentally hit alt+shift one day and heard that announcement. I hit it again and it said English Canada. I checked to be sure the language bar is off. I even went so far as to also turn it of in Jaws options, basic settings, windows system parameters. I just alt tabbed from the Jaws window back to this OE window and Jaws said English Canada. I had toggled the setting to Canada and Jaws was telling me that what it is set to for this window or application. It only makes the announcement if the language is different from the previous window.
