You can use the supplied LetterPerfect environment with
LetterPerfect 1.0 or greater and Vocal-Eyes 3.0.

With autoloading enabled, which is the default, Vocal-Eyes will
automatically load the LP.SET and LP.KEY files.  If you have
autoloading disabled, you will need to issue the following
command right before you are ready to load LetterPerfect:

                      VE /KLP /F0LP

This will load both the key label dictionary and the appropriate
.SET file.  At this point, start up LetterPerfect with the
following command:

                               LP

As you can see, the autoloading approach is much simpler.

You now have a talking version of LetterPerfect.  Remember, you
can change any of the default values supplied here.  This is
simply meant to get you started.  The following commands can be
used:

Because the alt key is used to pop up the menu in LetterPerfect,
the Scroll-Lock key has been defined as the fast review key.

All of the standard read hot keys work as described in the
manual.  For example, CTRL-B for previous character, CTRL-C for
current character and CTRL-D for next character.  The same is
true for word, line, sentence and paragraph.

ALT-W -> This will read your entire work area.  This includes
lines 1 through 24.

ALT-S -> This will read your status line.  This is actually line
25.

CTRL-A -> This will read your LetterPerfect cursor position.

ALT-R -> This will read your entire document from the cursor
position to the end of the document.  This is the Read To End hot
key.

When you enter the Spell option, you can press CTRL-W, the read
current word hot key, to hear the word in question.  Which means,
if you press it two times in a row, the word will be spelled.  A
third press will spell the word phonetically.  If you would like
to hear the context around the misspelled word, simply issue the
read current, previous or next hotkeys for character, word, line,
sentence or paragraph. Also, if you want to hear the options
offered by LetterPerfect, simply press ALT-O.  You will notice
Vocal-Eyes first speaks each option and than spells it.

When you enter the thesaurus option, you can use CONTROL-W just
like you did in the Spell mode.  Also, if you want to hear the
first column of options, simply press ALT-X.  To hear the second
column of options, press ALT-Y and to hear the third column of
options, press ALT-Z.  The standard Review, Menu and bypass hot
keys are also available.

Also, a few cursoring keys have been modified and added to the
defaults.  You will notice the TAB and BACK-TAB will read your
LetterPerfect cursor position.  The Page Up and Page Down keys
will
read lines one through twenty-four, the main work area of the
screen.

Also, the keypad dash (-) and plus (+) have been setup to read
the current work area.

CTRL-END has been setup to read all characters from the cursor to
the end of the line.

If you don't care for the particular placement of a hot key or
you don't like what a particular cursoring key is speaking,  feel
free to change them to your liking.  If you wish, you can setup
some of the read attribute hot keys.

The LP.SET file actually jumps among several .SET files.  For
example, a hyperactive window has been setup to load LPFILES.SET
when the list files option has been selected.  The same is true
for the spell checker, the menus, help, and reveal codes
sections.  Keep
this in mind as you make changes.  For example, if you wish to
change the speech rate, you will probably wish to change it for
each .SET file.

Feel free to use the utility SET2TEXT to convert the supplied
.SET files into a readable ASCII text file.  This will allow you
to see the default settings.
