Re: [orca-list] minor issue with orca and pcmanfm

hi
Thanks for the info joanie. So should I assume from now on that if 
keyboard focus gets stuck, it's not an orca issue and file a bug against 
the application? That would be helpful because I could then fix the 
problem in that application instead of reporting issues hear. I wish I'd 
thought to use control tab, where's my brain today? Smile.
Thanks
