Cursor tracking and laptops?

I don't have the docs up in front of me right at this moment, but I've
noticed a few things listed that don't have laptop equivalents. Cursor
tracking is one such, but I remember seeing a couple more. I'll be more
specific when I can sit down with the documentation again.

Hello James,
You are correct! Somehow the key binding has been lost in speakup.
Whether you are using a laptop or desktop with full keyboard, the
speakup-9, speakup-0 and speakup-<dash> should mirror the functionality of
the numeric keypad top-row keys.
Perhaps the maintainers can take alook at where this was lost and see
about putting it back?
You mentioned other lack of functionality? What is missing?
thanks,
