A variant on the auto-label graphics feature which would also benefit keyboard
users might be called auto-detect hot keys. JFW would enter a mode in which
it examined one menu pulldown after another and took note of accelerator key
combinations listed next to menu selections. It would store this list
including the associated menu descriptions somewhere on disk, and then
display the hot key list for the application upon request.

Ndavid you missed my point, its time i am concerned with.
Ni also like a simplistic screen reader.
Ntrue each new feature requires a learning curve, and also adds more
Ntotal code to the total package.
Nto things that the end user does not want, unless doing so results
Nin major time saveing.
Nin this case i think the convenience and time saving warrants the
Ntrade off. by the way time savings is the whole reason people use
Ncomputers to begin with, so should not the software we use also do
Nthe same?
