Re: [orca-list] empathy issues

[Peter Vágner <pvdeejay gmail com>]

Hello,
I am sorry I am rather pesimistic about empathy however I will ask anyway.
How do you girls and guys read in the readonly edit fields for example 
how do you read incoming messages in empathy?
I have tried it and I think I can only read using flat review.
I find it somewhat less confortable. Therefore I am using Thunderbird 
for my chatting now along with additional protocol extension and while I 
cant enjoy some advanced chat client like features I can feel avesome 
accessibility.
Also how do you guys handle message history in empathy? I have tried it 
and I could not read it at all. I have seen the recently received event 
in the history using flat review and that was all.
Another critical feature I think I dont know how to perform with empathy 
is how to open / copy a link when it is contained in an incoming 
message. It is easily doable using the keyboard?

I consider these things major for my chatting needs.

Sometime in the past I have submitted a very simple issue to the empathy 
bugtracker. It is not possible to activate add button in the account 
setup screen activate using spacebar or enter keys. It is still present 
after a year of development. So this is why I am so worried.

I dont think hacking empathy at the orca side of things will 
significantly improve it.

Greetings

Peter
