Re: [orca-list] orca customizations

["David E. Price" <deprice cs utah edu>]

Hi,

Have you considered using the application-specific preferences dialogs 
to accomplish this? you could set the general preferences for what you 
want most of the time, and use the application specific preferences 
(Orca-control-space bar) to change the behavior in the application where 
you write code to set punctuation to all and speak indentation.
