[orca-list] Control Over Screen Content

[RiverWind <riverwind shellworld net>]

Hi All,

Whilst downloading and/or conducting any other sorts of file transfer, I 
would like to maximize my ability to track the percentage or rate of the 
transfer. Now, the percentage of downloads for instance, is automatically 
conveyed, but I often do not get the end of the transfer, so I have to 
play a bit of a guessing game. For example,  Orca might tell me that my 
file is 92% of the way downloaded, but I never hear the 100% when it is 
reached.

Also, I am wanting to use the mouse keys in order to check various 
statuses and the like, but those keys are misteriously silent and will 
yield up no speach feedback when ever they are pressed; I am talking about 
the "read previous line, current line, next line", and the same with 
regard to review words and characters. I am unsure why these screen review 
keys are dysfunctional.

Also, how would I go about setting the speach feedback whilst using 
Firefox? More to the point, what settings might any of you good gentles 
suggest in order for me to solve the above enumorated problems?

As always, thanks ever so much in advance.
