Re: [orca-list] ultraedit

OK, I finally got it all downloaded, built and installed. 
The arch pkgbuild file  has a minor error, i.e. the libjpeg6 dependency is called libjpeg6-turbo I think it 
is.
Anyway, it seems this is not free, perhaps in both senses of the word as there is a register button when the 
program is started, and a msg saying trial 
period is expiring. This indicates to me that one must pay for the program if there is a trial  period, or 
perhaps that some features are locked if one 
does not pay and register. 
At the very least it is proprietary and one must accept a linlicense agreement, but that would not explain a 
trial period.
I also got a gtk error when starting, perhaps UE uses custo widgits which may not be accessible.
A bit more exploration shows several more or less open/public/free licenses, and one that may be proprietary.
In the help menu there is a request to register&pay. The license that I was least sure of sent me to a 404 
page, but listed other manual versions that I 
guess contain licenses or info about them. The last date on that page was 2006, so perhaps this program 
contains some abandoned project code, however the 
build is supposedly from december of 2015, don't remember when pacman says the arch  package was created.
Anyway, with flat review menus all seem available and the options I checked seemed to respond correctly to 
simulated clicks. As you say, the actual text is 
not readable with orca, at least I can not find any way to access it
 I can't find the file I think I just saved using ue, but don't remember what I called it, so it may be 
there...lol.
Did a quick one, see some control and or formatting junk at the bottom of the file, will look for the first 
one where I tried some other things, but I 
don't know enough about what to expect to say just how well things are working, but unless it does some fancy 
convertions that can just be scripted, or 
something really interesting can be done with macros and or scripts I don't see how this would be worth 
messing with on Linux as one can't read back what 
one has entered with out opening in another application.
