Re: [orca-list] Should foreground and background color presentation be enabled by default for Orca+F?

["B. Henry" <burt1iband gmail com>]

Seems reasoonable, I enabled it myself, although sadlly for some reason the orca f info is one of the things 
that does not 
work with my GUI of choice, fluxbox. 
I suspect most of us do not use this all that often, and when we do it is useful to get a fair overview of 
what's going 
on, and color is pretty important for how some thing is perceived by those who see it, and also has a great 
deal to do 
with accessiblity if we may be preparing something either for low vision users, or folks working in a certain 
lighting 
invironment.
