Re: Orca and Silpheed-claws gtk2

Hi Krister:

I took a quick look at this.  It seems as though the object model looks 
like it can be seen via the AT-SPI, but the event model is a bit 
different from what I've seen.  For example, it looks like the message 
list is a table that says it manages its descendants, but it doesn't 
issue active descendant changed events when you move among the 
messages.  Instead, it seems to emit selection changed events, and I 
cannot seem to get it to do so reliably.

I think our efforts are best focused on Evolution and/or Thunderbird, 
but you're welcome to work on a script for Claws.  We'll happily 
incorporate it into the code base if you get something working.  :-)
