Wow Tim, I also used OSW! I liked that Screen Reader a whole lot.
It allowed me to access so much software that so many VI peeps swore
up and down was totally inaccessible!…
<smile> It was fiddly sometimes, but IT WAS GREAT!…
Anyway, thanks for the note; glad to know I'm not dreaming!… lol!
Have an awesome day!…
Smiles,
Cara :)

Your right. It used to also be used in software like accounting
software and tax software and such like. It was also used in my old
Screenreader, Outspoken for Windows which I used until Windows XP.

If I remember right, this was also used in Win 95 as well.
The only reason peeps were able to press the enter key to open
files and shortcuts etc. was because JFW or WinEyes made it work
that way.

Subject: The behavior of the enter key?
Hi friends,
I'm getting into mac os and exploring the programs bit by bit, and
one thing above all else is really starting to irritate me. That is
the behavior of the enter key in finder. It pops up a box you can
use to rename the file or folder that has focus. If you want to
just
open the thing you have to use command O. What is the dang sense of
that? How often do you want to rename safari and itoons for
example,
compaired with the number of times you just want it to open?
Please,
is there any way to change this aweful behavior?
Thanks,
Erik
