Links idea?

[david poehlman]

I too touch type, I guess my hand span is not accomodating enough to do it 
easily.  I have to take My hand off of home row in order to accomplish the 
task and then use my pinky for the shift key so that I can reach v with my 
forefinger.

In another message, you ask Janina why not use the keys that people are used 
to and I don't object to the keys, but would posit that we could use any 
keys we wanted to use since we are not using any of the windows screen 
readers and since we are talking mostly braille here so if we think braille, 
we can perhaps come up with a sequence that would benefit braille users.  In 
other words, we are not tied to windows convention here.

David,
I have no problems my self pressing left shift and v but maybe that's
because I can touch type?  Or is it because you have a physical handicap.  I
believe in the next version of oralux sticky keys are being worked on.

Thanks,
Nigel,
