YOU were almost correct… vo lower case w reads the current word, but vo upper W will read the contents of the window. I am not sure what happens if there is scrollable text in the window. For example if you are viewing a MacVisionaries thread with 25 messages, will it read the entire thread or

Okay, I forgot. I know read all is VO+A. But sometimes that command automatically jumps to the top of a document and reads the entire thing. How do I read from my current VO position to the end of a document? Dave Carlson Engineer, Pioneer, Farfar, Woodworker, Musician, and Oregonian --
