So, I'm thinking Redhat did in fact turn on some feature or other by default which Slackware didn't. I have no idea what feature it might be, though. As to the original question of cursor tracking, I was thinking that a way to switch Speakup to treat a highlighted bar on the screen as a cursor, thus reading the line it is on as you move it would be nice.
