I've never read anything resembling a tutorial for Skype and use it daily.
If you have any specific questions, feel free to write to me and I'll do
what I can to help.
I'm told that Doug Lee's scripts make it even easier as I do poke around
with the JAWS cursor a lot and he apparently obviates most of that.

Thanks, Cris. Does anyone know of a good Skype tutorial or reference.
I know there are individual pages on the official site, but I find it
annoyingly inefficient to have to read a bit and then go to another
page, etc.
