I was soldering if anyone has had better luck with programs such as
win-link or airmail than I have these programs are used to drive terminal
controllers like the pk232 and the kam.  Win-link locked up my system which
is a pentium class 400 megahertz with 128 megs of ram using window-eyes
4.211.  I plan on upgrading to professional soon.  Airmail author ke6rk
says he has keyboard support and to an extent it does but when navigating
through a blank edit box, the arrow keys won't work but the mouse cursoring
keys will.  I can sort of get things working from the file menu using the
alt key combination but when the program first loads I hit insert a so it
will speak everything coming off the screen.  As things progress, I have to
turn insert a function off in window-eyes because the program is constantly
telling me the time which is marginally useful. 73- kk3f
