Ar nice! So what does this speak command actually do? Sorry; never used it since I rely on VoiceOver speaking text.

Well, I read messages a little different from most.  I press enter on the 
messages thread.  This on pens the message in another window.  Then I do VO e 
for edit and arrow down to speech and hit enter on start speaking.  This will 
read you the message without anything being spoken besides the text.  I was 
told that there’s a hot key to read like this, but I don’t know it.

God bless our troops and God bless America again.

Sorry for all questions, it is just I am trying to wean myself off Windows and 
using Mac more rather than concentrating on training lessons.  It is only with 
more use that the issues are arising.

Now in Mail, I thought if I want to reply to a message and to use dictation, I 
could press the Fn key twice and once again to stop the dictation.  I am doing 
this but nothing happens.  I can hear a sort of beep when the dictation 
supposedly starts but then there is nothing when I stop the dictation.  I 
thought I had set this up in text edit with someone but maybe it has to be set 
up in Mail also.

Secondly when I am reading a mail from someone, vo keeps saying words are 
misspelt and I guess they are because of the way people write in slang etc. Now 
on my Windows PC I don't have this happening.  Do I have to just put up with 
listening to this intrusion of misspelt as messages are being read back to me?
