I do it all the time under pine, Emacs, pico, and other apps and the regular arrows work fine once curser tracking is on. I'm not sure of which version of Speakup you are using, but I am using the one that comes shipped with Slackware 8 and it does track pretty well in apps. If you are pressing the up, down, left, and right arrows without hering anything the curser is moving but Speakup isn't simply reading the text. The star key usually has Speakup catch up with the curser, and reads were the curser is with the regular arrows. ----- Original Message ----- From: "Deedra Waters" To: Sent: Tuesday, September 11, 2001 7:27 PM Subject: Re: speakup and VI > Hmm, the curser tracking has always been unparked, so if that's what you > meant then it's always been like that. > but when I use the arrow keys it still doesn't read the text it just sits > there. but if I use the speakup keys it works just fine for reading, but > I'm not sure if the normal curser is following the speakup curser or > not...
