Re: [orca-list] in need of c++ code to add accessible labels

[Magdalen Berns <m berns thismagpie com>]

Hi Kendal,

This is disappointing. I know enough about c++ or c to at least
attempt this, but I know nothing about _javascript_. Someone else is
going to attack this or I'm going to have to resort to filing bugs
with good comments saying what the label should be, rather than being
able to do this myself. I wish I was more of a programmer, but I'm
not, at least not yet.

No need to put yourself down! Nobody is born with skills and we all have to start somewhere. The _javascript_ in Alejandro's examples repository might help you get started on _javascript_:

https://github.com/infapi00/at-spi2-examples/tree/master/_javascript_

Honestly, snce you already know a bit of C and C++ I bet you'll find _javascript_ easier to work with once you get over the initial learning curve of a new language. Keep at it :D

Also check out GNOME Shell's Looking Glass feature for testing _javascript_ codes out.
