Re: [orca-list] finding comments in libreoffice writer

[Peter Rayner <prayner unimelb edu au>]

Hi Jason and list. I suspect orca is trying to do the right thing here
but it isn't being spoken. In the following I've inserted a comment
between "e" and "w" in the word "review". I pick up the debug output
with the cursor on "w" and hit left arrow twice...

When I review this in emacspeak it looks like it's trying to vocalize
a character that the emacspeak system (using the outloud server)
pronounces as "object replacement character". 
Orca, using the speech-dispatcher layer doesn't produce any speech for
this and indeed there's a TypeError thrown. 
the next "left" takes us correctly to the "e".
Presumably this is fixed by getting "object replacement character"
pronounced. 
Can anyone tell me whether this is most easily done in orca or
speech-dispatcher?
I'll also check on the up-to-date system at work to see if this is
still happening in current versions.
regards
Peter
