[orca-list] Drag and Drop (Was how to copy text from the terminal)



Gnome Terminal aside though, are there presently any accessible methods to accomplish drag and drop functionality through the keyboard?

Hi,
It used to be possible to copy text from gnome-terminal to the clipboard but gnome dropped the ball and has let a bug stay in for several releases that prevents this now. All hope is not lost though. Here's something that may help, read the section on screen:

Hi all.
Probably this was already discussed before.

I found the following in the manual of gnome-terminal.

To select and copy text:

You can select text in any of the following ways:
To select a character at a time, click on the first character that you 
want to select and drag the mouse to the last character that you want to 
select.
To select a word at a time, double-click on the first word that you want 
to select and drag the mouse to the last word that you want to select. 
Symbols are selected individually.
To select a line at a time, triple-click on the first line that you want 
to select and drag the mouse to the last line that you want to select.
These actions select all text between the first and last items. For all 
text selections, GNOME Terminal copies the selected text into the 
clipboard when you release the mouse button. To explicitly copy the 
selected text, choose Edit â Copy.

My question:
How to drag the mouse using orca?
Thanks.
