Thanks wil,
Basically when there was no Orca, I did some scripting on jaws (that
being the only free and open part of jaws which I could share ). So I
very well understand what you are talking.
All I needed is to understand where to start and get the linkages right.
It is like understanding what is what.
I will surely go through the link you provided.
I hope you won't mind me bothering you with some more specific questions
once I go through it.
happy hacking.

Hi Krishnakant:
Each script is going to be unique, so it's really quite hard for us to
prepare you for each situation you may run into. The best thing you can
do is become familiar with the AT-SPI and learning how to analyze AT-SPI
traffic. I wrote something up just a few days ago to help you get
started. I really recommend reading this, digging in, and getting your
hands dirty:

I totally agree that we need to look forward. I see that several
programmers have offered to help on this list. I've subscribed to the
orca-devel list, but there hasn't been a post there since October.
Might it be time to try and fire-up a community effort around Orca?
Willie, with your guidance, there could be several new Orca developers
helping out in short order, I think. I'm pretty swamped with work and
Vinux support, but longer-term, I'd like to be one of those Orca
developers.
Well, now the real problem starts.
the most important contribution will come in terms of orca scripts for
different apps.
I have found it very tough to get grips with the scripting model/
architecture.
But I think if some one can even now put up an uptodate short scripting
guide, it might still lead to a lot of immediate contribution on a large
scale.
I would jump into scripting orca for different applications if I just
get a short tutorial.
Happy hacking.
