Re: [orca-list] date and time keybindings

[Paul Hunt <huntp ukonline co uk>]

Hi,

I vote for Orca+T for time and Orca+D for Date.

And keep F12 for the Orca/Gecko mode toggle.

That's not an anti-JAWS opinion as I use JAWS as well.  In fact when 
using Windows I frequently press JAWS+T wanting the time and get the 
title of the current window instead!

Perhaps that's because I use Orca more than JAWS since the opposite 
never seems to happen (I press Orca+F12 wanting the time and end up 
switching to gecko mode) but I think it's just because access key + T is 
far more natural.

And it would save another vote on what to do with the gecko toggle 
keystroke.

Paul
