Hi,
I just downloaded basic manual from FS. I want to learn scripting as well.
I just browsed the manual but it is a start. Hopefully I'll begin in a
couple of days.

Once there, Press Insert+F7 to display the JAWS Links List dialog. Press
T until you reach the Training list item. Press Enter and this will take
you to the Training Headquarters page on our web site.
Once there, press Insert+F7 a second time and press T until you reach
the Training Downloads Page list item. Press Enter and this will open
the Training Downloads page. At this point, press the letter H until you
reach the heading titled "Basics of Scripting Manual and FSDN (Freedom
Scientific Developer Network)" and you will find an FTP link to the
Basics of Scripting manual beneath it.
