Subject: Reducing screen info

I am postmaster at the University of Wisconsin - Eau Claire. We have approx
12000 students on campus and of course some of those have disablities.  We
have one student who is blind.  She has an electronic reader that reads
everything on the screen.  This allows her to use computers.  When using
Pine, the reader reads every character on the screen before she can type
anything.  

To start, I would like a way to remove the "menu" from the bottom of the
compose window. Does anybody know of a way to do this?

Brian,
For version 3.92 (still no date, but getting ever closer!) several
features have been added to assist the visually impaired, including the
ability to turn off the key menu.

Alas, we don't have the feature list ready yet.  (We have to decode and
digest a year's worth of cryptic one-line notes to ourselves :)
