Re: [orca-list] ORCA concept

Hi Peter and all,

Yeah, in order to port Orca to Windows it would require a total
rewrite from scratch. I can't see much if any of the existing code
being compatible with Windows given that there are too many
differences to make such a thing viable without a rewrite.
Fortunately, with NVDA 2013 one doesn't have to do that. :D
