Hi,
I think this can confuse as much as educate. There are so many keyboard
commands that one can use that are not Voiceover but Mac OSX specific that the
lines can get blurred in a hurry. I believe there are documentation out there
of just Mac OSX specific keyboard commands. What I think Apple should
considered doing is, getting rid of some redundant commands. For example, VO M
brings you to the menu bar but so does control F2. I think this is pretty
silly. I figure this was probably necessary in Tiger but, its just unnecessary
now in my opinion.
