Instead of (on *one* line)

 <Control>s 1 1000 10000 /usr/sfw/bin/srcore --login --disable-magnifier
   --enable-speech --enable-braille

Try this:

 <Control>s 1 1000 10000 orca

Assuming that 'orca' is in the path of the gdm user.  Otherwise 
something like:


 <Control>s 1 1000 10000 /usr/bin/orca


What this is saying is that upon a single press of Ctrl-S for at least 1 
second (but less than 10 seconds), and then releasing it, launch 
/usr/bin/orca

If you want to pass any command line options, you should simply append 
those to that line.  If you prefer Ctrl-O to invoke Orca, then the line 
would look like this:

 <Control>o 1 1000 10000 /usr/bin/orca


Make sense?
