Re: [orca-list] (aside from the debating) Orca, Skype and accessibility workaround

I agree, Michael.

I also prefer the cli, mainly because it's easier to get to the console
where I open linphonec when the phone rings. I find it easier to do
Right-Alt+F11 than to go scanning through a series of open Windows or
navigating from the Gnome Alt+F1 applications menu. Perhaps I could
assign linphone a hot key, but I might still need to get into my GUI
console first.
