[RWP] Jim, your scripts for Reaper

[Kerry Hoath]

Why not just use control and alt on the right-hand side of the keyboard 
if you have them?
No yoga moves required.
Insert B is a Jaws shortcut before NVDA had it and it stands for read 
dialog (b)ox in tab order.
If you set capslock as an nvda key it's doable with one hand and a 
finger stretch or use your right hand to find insert and left-hand to 
find b locating on the home row and drop down and to the right.

Anything to save you from getting carpal tunnel <smile>
regards, Kerry.
