Re: [orca-list] interesting feature request

[Francisco Javier Dorado Martínez <javier tiflolinux org>]

Hi all

I think this feature should be filed anyway.
The best thing on free/open source software is that anyone can work and
summit patches on a bug report, doesn't matter priority if you can file
the bug and present a patch, if community like it, it is applied

For this RFE I have the following customizations under my
~/.orca/orca-customizations.py file

from time import localtime, strftime

def sayDateAndTime(script, inputEvent=None):
  f=os.popen("date")
  speech.speak(f.read())
  f=os.popen("date")
  braille.displayMessage(f.read())
  f.close()
  return True

sayDateAndTimeHandler = input_event.InputEventHandler(sayDateAndTime,
_("Speak and braille current date and time"))

keys = keybindings.KeyBindings()

keys.add(keybindings.KeyBinding("d", 1<< settings.MODIFIER_ORCA, 1 <<
settings.MODIFIER_ORCA, sayDateAndTimeHandler))

settings.keyBindingsMap = {}
settings.keyBindingsMap["default"] = keys
#end of file

So you can press orca + d to speak/braille date information.

Hope this help!

Regards

Javier
