Re: [orca-list] strange bug with orca and espeak ng

hi

I'll accept any help, especially grepping the source code to find 
obscure bugs. The only reason I'm thinking it's an orca bug or possibly 
speech-dispatcher is because when you're arrowing up and down, the emoji 
are mangled, but when you use left and right arrow they're not. Very odd 
confusing bug.

Thanks
