Re: [orca-list] unable to stop speech with Orca 2.22.

[Willie Walker <William Walker Sun COM>]

Hi Kenny:

I just tested with the Orca Quit dialog and gnome-terminal using Orca 
2.22.1 and Orca from SVN trunk and couldn't reproduce the hang.  Here's 
what I did:

1) In gnome-terminal, flat reviewed the results of a 'make install' and 
KP_7'd to a line with about 40 non-blank characters on it.  I pressed 
and held KP_8 for 5 seconds.  Orca began spelling the line using 
military spelling.  I pressed the left control key and speech stopped.

2) Pressed Insert+q to bring up the Orca quit dialog.  KP_7'd to the 
"This will stop all speech output..." line.  Pressed and held KP_8 as 
above.  Same results.

One thing I did notice was that I needed to press the left control key 
*twice* sometimes to make speech stop completely.  But, I didn't notice 
the complete hang that you're mentioning.

Will
