Here are instructions for installing and getting the help balloon script to work. this script will make it possible to click help balloons wit one keystroke in versions of jaws prior to jaws nine. Everything below the stars is the script itself. First, select the entire script text and copy it to the clipboard. Then, hit insert f2 and bring up script manager.Once script manager opens, press control shift d to bring up the default script file. Then move to the bottom of it with control end. then,hit enter once or twice to make sure your on a blank line,,and paste the contents of the script. Then move into the body of the script and hit control d. Once you do, a script information dialogue box will appear. Tab through it and fill in the various fields, leaving the script name box intact. You can fill in the synopsis and description fields if you wish. Make sure the can be attached to key checkbox is checked. You can use any keystroke you wish that won't conflict with another keystroke. I used control shift l myself. Then click ok and hit control s to recompile the default script file, and use alt f4 to close the dialogue. After that, when a help balloon appears, you should be able to use the keystroke you assigned to click it.
