Re: [orca-list] Looking for suggestions on how to integrate orca with LaTeX-access scripts

[Alastair Irving <alastair irving sjc ox ac uk>]

I'd prefer it to be more automated; ie have a key to toggle the 
translation on and off and then if its on automatically speak and 
braille the translated line as you navigate a document, (so if the 
translation is enabled you don't notice the actual line of LaTeX at 
all).  This suggests I need to overide the mechanism for speaking and 
brailling the current line in an editor.

Many thanks
