I have gone through the presentation you have made at Csun regarding
scripting and found it quite informative.
I have just now tried to use planner, a project management tool. It
sounds like it should be usable with some scripting.
The problem is that I am new to gnome and orca of course. What is
happening is that the thing says "toggel button pressed" or not pressed
when arrowing up and down. Above the line, a description occurs according
to the 7 key on the numpad. As I understand it, one can now write a
script to automaticly speak the description together with the status of
the button.
Is this correct and is there an example script which might already handle
this situation? Can one copy an existing script to the name of a new
application to have orca call it when the new application is opened?
IE. can one copy xyz.py to planner.py, put it in the correct place and try
it?
TIA, Willem
ps. Where does user questions for orca go?
