Re: [orca-list] C(++ And orca?

Hello.

Although it won't work with Orca, I would suggest to take at look at 
Emacs + Emacspeak. If you don't know, Emacs is a very powerful text 
editor which provide dozens of functionalities (some of them that aren't 
restricted to text editing features such as reading e-mails, navigating 
through the internet and so on). Emacspeak, roughly speaking, is a 
subsystem that add accessibility to the Emacs by providing several audio 
features such speech, audio cues, keybindings that help blind developers 
to interact with Emacs and so forth.

Although the learning curve may be long, the benefits are very 
interesting. I'm a software engineer and I work every day with Emacs. 
I'm very satisfied with the functionalities of this editor and I regret 
for not having used it before. Since Emacs is originally a text editor 
for terminals, it is very suited for blind developers. You do everything 
within text buffers (from coding, navigating in the file tree to reading 
Slack messages or issuing Shell commands) through homogeneous commands 
or keybindings. In summary, there are not annoying distractions or 
complexities that are so common in graphical based environments.

I don't work with C++, but I've mentioned it because Emacs supports lots 
of programming languages and C/C++ is one of them.

Best regards.
