Where to go now

['Georgina']

Hi

Just a note:  If you are going to be looking at emacs and emacspeak, I'd 
forget vi for a while.  The learning curves are steep for each and doubling 
up will only prove to be frustrating.

Because I lost all my data I don't have the URL but there's a really good 
tutorial on the web, from the vi lovers home page, I think but I'm sure 
you'll find it quite easily.

Emacs comes with a tutorial as a part of the package but personally, it's not 
as good as the vi lessons.

Same with the speech solutions, focus on one at a time along with one editor.  
There's not much to learn with Speakup but there's a considerable amount with 
emacspeak.  I suggest you pace yourself and try to deal with as few new 
things as possible.  GNU / Linux is so different to MS products that there's 
a big enough challenge in itself.

Good luck and enjoy

Gena
