New features not found in the other documentation:

     Help messages:  Using INSERT + H will give you a audio help message
which varys depending on where you are in Windows.  This can be very
useful in learning dialog boxes and jump keys.

     Screen Refresh: Using INSERT + ESCAPE will refresh the screen.  There
are times that dialog boxes opened over text can create problems reading
the text after the box is removed.  Refreshing the screen will generally
solve the problem quickly.

     A special notice about doing an update to JAWS for
Windows version 1.1 or later is in the file

JFW is contained in the file "TRN_TAPE.TXT". This can be

both JFW and the Windows Environment.

PassKeyThrough:  Press this key first, then the
following key is pass through to the application, bypassing the JAWS macro
processor.  Very useful if you use a laptop or like to use the same keys
that the application might use.
It is currently bound to the Insert+3 (numbers row) key in the default macro
file, "DEFAULT.JMS" and is also found on the Alt+3 key when JFW is installed
for laptops.  It can be moved to any key combination you like.
