Hello,

Orca documentation can be read online at: https://help.gnome.org/users/orca/stable/

When handling the terminal content, you most likely should read a chapter on flat review: https://help.gnome.org/users/orca/stable/howto_flat_review.html.en


Also the very same documentation is installed alongside orca and you can reach it by pressing orca+F1, that's inser+F1 on a desktop keyboard layout and capslock+F1 on a laptop keyboar layout.
To configure orca keybindings layout, you can press orca+space and explore the general tab.

Greetings

Peter

[I apologize for the cross post, truly sorry if you received more than 1 copy of this]

 

Is there a user guide on how to use ORCA, specifically how to move around the terminal screen?

 

It appears I will not be able to get speakup installed on an upcoming installation of RHEL on my new desktop workstation, and ORCA would be the only screen reader option, since 'yasr' and 'fenrir' is not supported by Red Hat either.  I was able to spin up a Raspberry PI over the weekend, and was able to get the terminal screen to read anything new, but is unable to go back to review what is on the screen.

 

For those who might be curious, no I cannot have anything installed that is not supported by Red Hat in their yum repos, and no I cannot use another distribution other than RHEL either, so I am kind of stuck.

 

Lastly, for those who are interested, I have a case opened with IBM Accessibility, and a case opened with IBM linux support team, and there isn't much they can do beside referring me back to Red Hat.  I now have a 'feature enhancement request' opened with Red Hat to have speakup be supported by Red Hat officially, let's hope that happens soon.

 

Again, thanks everyone for your advice and help this far, and thanks in advance for any further advice and help you can provide
