Re: [orca-list] Getting Orca Past the Configuration

["Nick Adamson" <Nick NDAdamson com>]

Hi Chris.

you've actually got Orca up and running properly.
The screen your seeing with the preference and quit buttons is called the 
Orca Main Window.
This sits on your desktop all the time while Orca is Running.

I actually find it easier to turn it off. To do this select the preferences 
button, in the general tab there's a tick box to "Show main orca screen". Un 
check this button to hide the screen.

If you hide this screen you will need to remember that to change the prefs 
you'll have to use the Orca Key and space to launch the dialog.

Hope this helps.
Nick.
