Re: some general questions from a newbieDate:
Fri, Jan 25, 2013 2:56:16 pmHello David,
Window-Eyes 8 comes with an app called the Insert Key Layout which
mimics the JFW commands you already know. While we recommend our default
layout, this option exists so that you can begin using Window-Eyes
immediately without also having to relearn your hot keys.
Also, if you would like to subscribe to GW-Info, we can add you
manually. Please reply to me directly at steve@gwmicro.com with the
email address you would like to use, and we'll take care of it.
Regards,
Steve
