[Blindmath] JAWS and Statistical Software

Hello All, with apologies for cross posting:

I'm hoping to collect a list of useful resources for two of my JAWS users
who are graduate students in the social sciences and will be using stat
software. At present, they have several options and are not necessarily
restricted to using one software package over another. There is a slight
preference by the departments in which they are enrolled, for SPSS. That
said, Minitab has headquarters near our campus. SMILE.

I have read Theodor Loots' helpful article that compares/contrasts the main
stat packages: http://www.jstatsoft.org/v58/s01 but I am left wondering if
there is a compact list of shortcut keyboard commands (ie, a cheat sheet or
quick reference sheet) that JAWS users can refer to while using, for
example, SPSS? (As opposed to reading the 2500 page command syntax guide).

(I understand from Dr Loots article that R is the way to go, with SAS being
a next best option. I will share Dr Loots' article with my students once I
get it out of PDF and into Word format).

Thanks in advance!
Alexa
