functions:

7.3 Screen reader using Windows, Example Window-Eyes
Window-Eyes by GW Micro is one of the most commonly used screen readers worldwide.
It enables access to all kinds of different applications, without complicated scripts.
Window-Eyes is highly customizable, so you can control how to display the monitor
information.
When you use Window-Eyes with a Braille display, you can track both the focus as well as
the mouse cursor. In addition, there is also an invisible cursor, the so-called WE-cursor. If
you bind the Braille display to the WE-cursor, you can move the position of the Braille
display relative to the screen without changing the position of either the focus or the
mouse cursor.
7.3.1 Overview
Your Modular Evolution, just like all the other Handy Tech Braille displays, is supported by
Window-Eyes. The following table provides an overview of Window-Eyes commands that
can be entered with the control keys on the Braille display. We have not included an
exhaustive description of each of the functions, because they are already contained in the
Window-Eyes manual.
