Re: [orca-list] Creating a wiki page to share Orca customizations? (wasRe: OCR Current Window)

If I understand the suggestion correctly, this sounds like a great idea.
That way non-technical users can just place a new customization script on the right folder and it would be loaded automatically.

Hi,
It sounds like an awesome idea. I was wondering also, for the sake of keeping the customizations file size to a reasonable size, could a script be written that would load multiple customization files from a sub directory? This would have several benefits, you could put one thing per file, and people could get the customizations they want, and not the others, the files would be smaller and easier to read, making it easier to debug etc. So, I guess my question is, could a customizations.py file be written that searches a subdirectory and loads all the .py files there as part of itself? I will try to contribute to the scripts when the wiki page is created. Python isn't a strong point of mine, and python3 even more so, but I guess it's time to learn. 
thanks

Hi list,
I think this is a good point. Here curses some "howtos" to script your orca installation. i already post some scripts so its not lost to the whole world. I would be able to host a wiki on my root server with grant access to anybody who need. should i do this? is this "near enough" to the gnome orca project? what does the majority think here$? whats the best way to provide our knowledge and scripts? i think we should document the great of extensibility that orca provide. 

this is a importent topic i think.
but now i enjoy my pizza :).

cheers from germany

Hey Chrys, all.

This reminds me: It would be cool to have all of these collected
somewhere (like a wiki) so that people can share them. Any volunteers?

Hi Guys,
i play a little arround with tesserwrap. i dont know if it really make
sense but maybe someone need this.
i wrote a little orca-cust for taking a screen shot of the current
window and pass it through tesseract. just press
orca + m
orca will start reading the content of the window (maybe the image
program or browser with pictures or an other not accessible content) and 
set it to the clipboard.
You need tesseract tesserwrap, your tesseract-language-pack and orca >= 
3.14

hier is the cust script for those who are interested in:
