By default, you can use the numpad 7 and 9 keys to read the previous and next line respectively, and 8 to read the current line. The same logic applies to 4 5 and 6 (words) and 1 2 and 3 (characters). You can use numpad-insert plus numpad 9 (page up) to go to the top of the screen, and numpad-insert plus numpad-2 (down arrow) to read from the current curso position to the bottom of the screen. To check out what all the speakup keys do, press keypad-insert plus F1 when in Speakup and either up and down arrow through the list or try pressing keys to see what they do. Press Space to leave keyboard help. In lynx, you can use page-down or Space to go to the next screen, and page-up or b to go back a page. As posted already, insert and delete move the screen display up and down one line (something I previously didn't know). Home and End go to the first and last screen of a document, as do control-A and control-E respectively. Up and Down arrows move you to the next and previous page element (or next and previous line in a multi-line edit field), and right arrow follows a link and left goes back unless you're in any kind of edit field. To get a full and hopefully up to date list of keystrokes in lynx, press "k" when in lynx. Note that unless you use a blinux lynx config (wich I did see somewhere but don't know where), lynx will not automatically make the cursor track where you are in a document. You need to turn on "show cursor" in the options screen which is not exactly straight-forward, or by setting show_cursor=on in your .lynxrc config file. Hope this helps you get started. Geoff.
