Re: Orca A comment about the laptop keyboard commands.

[Dorado Martínez, Francisco Javier <FDMA once es>]

Hi to all

Another issue I am experimenting with the laptop layout is with the semicolon character that reads current 
character.
I would have to press capslock + shift + , to get this function.
The semicolon character in a spanish keyboard is located in the , (comma) key, but with the shift key. When I 
press capslock + shift + , this doesn't work.

What about using capslock + , (comma) to read current character and control + capslock + , (comma) to read 
entire document?


Thanks!
Regards,

Javier
