Re: [orca-list] How to use spellcheckers with Orca?

[luciano de souza <luchyanus gmail com>]

It's important to add one information else.

I agreed that Thunderbird and Firefox worked well with spellchecker
becose I remembered it's true.

However, I had not tested. Afterwards, I tested and I got a surprising
answer. Orca is not reading wrong words, when navigating with arrows,
even if when I talk about thunderbird and Firefox!

So the problem is much more generalized.

I use Triskel 7.0, based in Ubuntu 14.10. Could be this fact the
reason for this bad behaviour?
