Re: [orca-list] Keyboard handling and Spell Mode in Keyboard Learning Mode

[Willie Walker <William Walker Sun COM>]

Hi Daniel:

You can control the key echo of the modifier keys via the "Key Echo" tab 
of the preferences dialog.  We chose to have the echo enabled by default 
for naive users who can then disable it as they gain experience with the 
system.

Hope this helps,

Will
