Well that's good, Dectalk is annoying.  But the Dectalk archive 
songs are pretty funny, especially its battles with Eloquence.  
Maybe you could check on GW Micro's site.

Subject: [nabs-l] window eyes commands

Hi all,

I am getting a temporary job and I was informed I have to use 
Window  Eyes, WE, and I am used to jaws.
At least I can change it to elloquence.

So does anyone have a list of commands for it, the reading 
commands I mean.
I need commands for things like read to end of screen; in jaws 
that is insert down arrow.  Also read next/previous word, current 
line, current sentence, next/previous paragraph would help.

How are the internet commands different? I know that you move 
through menus with the same arrows and hit enter on your menu 
choice, just as with jaws; that is a keyboard thing, not a screen 
reader thing.

I heard you still have to turn on forms mode in We, where as jaws 
you do not.  Are the hot keys the same, or are some the same.
Some of the hot keys for internet for jaws are:
insert f7: links list.
insert f5: headings list
Insert f9: frames list
H: headings
C: combo box
R: radio button
B: button
In jaws you can also custom label links and I think that command 
is
Control insert tab.

Thanks for any tips.
Ashley
