Jamal's site is like candy to a hungry hacker... I mean in the positive 
sense, not the destructive hacker -- and of course inthane's site is great 
as well..
Thanks jamal, and all other contributors. I really planned on joining you in 
your developments but just have been busy with distractions. And Microsoft 
keeps belching out new stuff so I haven't been tinkering. If I had a project 
to tinker on ranther than endlessly downloading it would help, instead of 
wasting time inventing a game or some such to learn the languages I am 
interested in and get familiar with VS.
I am in the process of getting a vista laptop so I can use the latest 
version of VS, but things have just usurped my available cycles.
I want to look at NVDA for use on vista to see how it compares with jaws.  I 
am running jaws 9 and have been reading with dismay all your posts about 
jaws and FS dragging its feet.  I may have to change screen readers if this 
keeps up. And that takes tinker time.
If anyone has in mind a need that needs to be met for which there is not a 
tool already in jamal's great collection, please let me know. I'm also 
available to bug fix and document, when I get my nifty laptop -- but at 
present I am running XP Professional. If there is something I can do on XP 
that would assist in this endeavor, please let me know.
Happy hacking, and for those in the US, don't forget to vote in 3 weeks!

EdSharp is a free, open source text and programming editor.  Its installer
is available at
http://EmpowermentZone.com/edsetup.exe

The files in the archive are text that can be read by any editor,
including Notepad.  EdSharp includes some hotkeys that make navigation
more convenient.  For example, when on an entry in the table of
contents, you can press F6 to go to its corresponding section in the
body.  Shift+F6 does the reverse, going from a section in the body back
to the topic name in the table of contents (which is the first section
of the file).  Control+F6 lets you search for a topic based on any
sequence of characters within its name.  Alt+F6 searches for the next
match.  Control+PageDown and Control+PageUp go to the next or previous
section andautomatically read its topic name.
