Course I may not be a great user either. LOL.
Cindy, Thanks for your input. Since yours is the easiest response to respond to, I'll do it first. Your interpretation of what I'm saying with regard to something like double click meaning activate, single click meaning select, etc., is the correct one. As old school as I am, I often use "Return" for "Enter" and I warn people about that, too. For those on here who are really old school and of a programmer bent, there are times when CR/LF (carriage return, line feed), the two separate actions that make up an Enter when dealing with text, still occasionally pass my mind. Just FYI, any time you hear "click" without a modifier that would equate to a left click on the mouse. It just became custom to say click "naked" instead of "left click" because right click is used relatively infrequently, as opposed to left click, click, and double click. I also should have noted that the majority, though not all, of my clients were formerly sighted and virtually all have some pretty extensive computer experience during that period. I actually don't think I've had anyone, even who's always been blind, who has had no computer experience at all prior to my services being requested. Brian
