Hi, I forgot to mention that, after downloading the script, you should place it in Macintosh HD, Library, Scripts, VoiceOver. You'll be asked to enter your password in order to save things into that folder. This is just the login password for an Administrator on your computer. If you wish to make a keyboard shortcut for it, you should do this in the Keyboard Commander area of the VoiceOver Utility.
