m - Toggles the word mode on or off. When toggled on screader speaks out words instead of characters.

n - Toggle for numbers. If toggled on (default) screader speaks out the value of the digits pointed to by the internal pointer. Otherwise screader speaks out digit by digit. When in word_mode words will be spelled.

z - Put screader in direct mode. In this mode each command can be given without the alt-key, so that reviewing the screen is easier. When the `z'-key is pressed, screader goes back to application mode, so that you can work with your application again.

- - Toggles repeat_mode on or off. If toggled on, every sequence of the same characters will be spoken as `character n times`. where n stands for the number of that character in the sequence.

' - Toggles caps_mode on or off. If toggled on screader speaks the word `cap' before each capitalized character.

= - Makes the internal pointer equal to the cursor.
