NVDA+Right Arrow: Reads the next character in your terminal NVDA+Down Arrow: Reads the next line of your terminal NVDA+Up Arrow: reads the previous line of your terminal While in a terminal session with these configuration changes, you can review text with the following NVDA commands:

It is also recommended that you set your review mode to 'object review' no matter which keyboard layout you choose, as this is how you can use NVDA to access output returned from each shell command you run. Changing your NVDA modifier key to Caps Lock will help with this too. It may help to use commands like those you are already familiar with. It is recommended that you set your NVDA keyboard layout to laptop, again, simply because this layout uses text navigation commands that are similar to the ordinary ones. Thus, alternative navigation is necessary. pressing the up arrow in a remote session populates the prompt with the previously typed command, rather than shifting focus to the previous line. Normal text review is not possible due to the way that your keyboard controls the terminal. Configuration changes are geared towards making it easier for you to navigate around the terminal and review text output on a more granular level with text navigation commands you are already familiar with. While you are certainly welcome to use any configuration that works for you, this one has proven to work well in the terminal. Practice Labs recommends these configuration settings for NVDA. With the right knowledge, you can navigate PuTTY, the remote device, and it's output quickly and efficiently. For some Practice Labs content, you may be required to remotely access lab devices with the PuTTY terminal program in conjunction with NVDA.
