[macvoiceover] Re: battery: Mac or vs commands

This battery exchange raises a question for this new user: how/where does one learn Mac keyboard commands as opposed to VO commands? I presume that the control-F8 is a Mac command? Where can I learn these? To go to various menus, I was using VO-M: obviously the control-f8 is better (fewer keystrokes). Are there a lot of duplicate commands. Lots of commands are used by sighted folks who don't even know they've got access to VO, so I presume that one can become proficient in these and that over time (hopefully) I'll learn when which is better??

verry basic question
how to check the battery on a macbook?

The major difference between a thing that might go wrong and a thing that cannot possibly go wrong is that when a thing that cannot possibly go wrong goes wrong it usually turns out to be impossible to get at or repair.
