and where would I put the export statement?

You do need to export it, otherwise it is only a shell variable, not an
environment variable. See any good book on shell basics for further details.

Where to put it depends on how you start your X server. If you use startx from
a shell as I do, then your ~/.profile file would be a good place.

I usually start gdm, but  its shell isn ologin, so I ampuzzled.  Also, I
did put a line in my .bashrc figuring it would login and pick it up
there, but nothing happened.  Also, for gdm the orca settings get copied
from somewhere each time I start gdm -- is this by design?
