The command key is a prefix that lets you execute various functions in
the Skype scripts without each needing a unique keystroke to run it.
I documented it in release notes on my web site,
http://www.dlee.org/skype/
but admittedly there is not currently a central manual explaining this
feature. In the beta scripts for Skype 4, I did implement a way for
you to Tab among the choices at each level. It sort of works like a
menu system, so left bracket is like Alt, and you then hit letters to
get to submenus until you get what you want. For example, [c1 will
switch to the first open chat window, [n2 will read the second most
recent notification, [cl will list open chats, etc.

What's the difference between the command mode and the way it was? I've
never seen this in anything but dos prompts. I don't understand its
function. I also aren't sure when or how to take advantage of this and
don't see reference to it in the help files for Skype or jaws.
