Re: [orca-list] orca and vscode

Hi Michał

Thank you very much for the prompt reply.


I am probably doing something wrong because I have not been successful yet.

I tried the following:


1. I downloaded the file code-stable-1576682093.tar.gz.

2. I removed the code-git installed previously.

3. I executed the command tar zxf code-stable-1576682093.tar.gz.

4. After the file was unzipped I made a cd to VSCode-linux-x64/bin/ and 
I executed the following:

./code --force-renderer-accessibility


The result was worse, no accessibility.

Where is my mistake?

Thanks.
