I'll be happy to let you listen with the overrides on and off, to show you that
there is absolutely no change, or at least not one
that is noticeable. Also, I'm on a decently fast connection.
If you've got some time, I'm available on skype and other messengers.
But as of now, this doesn't work for me, nor for Ken Perry, who might also
still be on this list, and is also running windows 7
64-bit.
Take care,
Sina

Cina,
I too am running Windows 7 yet the problem of cursor tracking in nano
and other editors over ssh is not unique to Windows 7 or Vista. It
occurs in Windows XP as well.
I fought it for at least a year before discovering the script
override method described below and can assure you that this is the
right track. The issue is that JAWS reads the new character before
moving the cursor. The Pause() function, which is equivalent to a
Delay( 1 ) or 1/10th of a second solves this problem, although over
slower connections, a Delay( 2 ) or more might be necessary.
Tested with Nano and Joe's Own Editor and both behave fantastically
after making this change.
I will have to investigate the OSM recommendation described below to
see if it improves the command-line editing in Windows 7,
particularly the issue of Backspace re-reading the entire line.
