Re: [orca-list] Emacs and Orca again

[Steve Holmes <steve holmes88 gmail com>]

I spent some time recently with trying to run emacs in a gnome
terminal and came across the -nw switch.  Isn't that a viable solution
for what people are seeking? I use emacs -nw from mutt now and if I'm
using mutt in a gnome terminal, replying to a message works fine and
no Orca hangs.
