[orca-list] Some questions

[Luis González <luisg123v gmail com>]

Hello list, I have some questions related to Orca and its configuration:

1. Is it possible to install/compile current versions of Orca under
gnome 2 based distros? e.g. CentOS 6.5, Ubuntu 10.04, etc.

2. Is it possible to disable the message Orca speaks when it is
closed? ("Screen reader off"). I'd like Orca closes quietly. I could
assign a shortcut key to "killall orca", but I wouldn't be able to
assign Insert+q to perform that action.

3. Is it possible to tells Orca what punctuation should be spoken and
what shoul not? If I set punctuation level to "All", Orca speaks *all*
punctuation, including commas. I'd like Orca to speaks almost
punctuation, but excluding commas and others I know they're there due
to the pronunciation.

4. When orca reads symbols like "·", it seems to read them on two
different ways, depending whether it's reading character by character
or another way. For instance, I'm using the Spanish voice; when I
write a "·" symbol, Orca speaks "middledot" (English); but when I read
that symbol, Orca speaks "punto centrado" (middledot in Spanish). Can
I avoid this behaviour? In addition, I think it's a bug, so if we can
fix it, it would be nice. I don't have a handy English installation to
make tests and find an English example, but I'll try to do it this
week.

Thanks!
