Hello Esther
Thank you so much for the detailed explanation and pointing me to some
resources. It looks like I have a lot to learn, switching over from
my familiar key-stroke oriented VO to the gesture-oriented VO.
Hopefully, I will have my sanity intact. :)

Thanks. I managed to do it now but the incremental rate and

Does the flick rate determine that?

Hello all:
How do I close or quit applications on the iPad? I am running iOS

Is it that there is no way to do that and you have to keep tapping on

only one window per application running.

Hello friends:
With a lot of appointments for mobility instruction and others, I have
an urgent need to use a calendar.
I am a VO newbie and when I look at iCal with my very limited useful

What do you suggest I do for the interim till I get good at VO?
Thanks,

Hello:
I noticed that it happens to me on busy pages that is, web pages with
a lot of HTML elements. This makes me venture that it is to do with
the DOM tree navigation that VO has to perform and this could be a

You probably tried this already but you can simulate a mouse click
with VO + Shift + spacebar. If you do not have mouse tracking on, you
will have to do a VO + Command + F5 to get the cursor before doing the

I hope this helps.

Erik,
That is how I found UnRarX. Maybe I should try another RAR expander.
The instructions tell me to a) UnRAR the file b) Burn/Mount the files
and c) Enjoy!.
It is the second step that I am having a problem with.

I wish there was some kind of id, a thread id, by which it could

Do you still have a problem or is this an older post?
You inquired about the EOF in an earlier post. EOF is just a token,
signaling the script to read from the standard input until it
encounters that token. Hence the EOF again in the last line.
