F1 and F2: the User Menu keys
These keys are responsible for handling the user menu. These menus are explained in
detail in their own section.
The Text Navigation Group.
Pause (PA)
This key pauses reading, and stops the cursor at the beginning of the most recently
spoken word.
When reading has been paused using PA, we say Auto-Lektor is in Pause Mode. While
Auto-Lektor is in Pause Mode, it is possible to navigate around in text, and change voice
parameters and language settings.
Use PA again to leave Pause Mode, and begin reading from the current cursor position.
