Re: [orca-list] reviewing orca with eclipse, any experiences?

[Jose Vilmar Estacio de Souza <vilmar informal com br>]

Hi,
Yes, the bug regarding auto complete was fixed and the fix is present in 
eclipse 3.5m6.
One big problem that I am facing is that I can not access the status 
line with orca.
This is critical in my opinion because I can not know for example in 
which line I am.
I am trying script orca to solve this problem.
